銭形砂絵「寛永通宝」 Zenigata Sand Coin 香川県観音寺市 Kan’onji Kagawa JAPAN【Subtitles 字幕】One-Shot ワンショット

The Zenigata Sand Coin is located in Kotohiki Park in Kan’onji City, Kagawa Prefecture. The Zenigata Sand Coin is a massive coin-shaped monument molded directly out of the white sand of Ariake Beach. Said to bring long life and luck in money matters to anyone who lays eyes upon it. The sculpture is 345 meters in circumference, up to 122 meters wide, and surrounded by black pine trees. The origins of the artwork is that it was shaped by local residents in a single night in 1633 to welcome Ikoma Takatoshi, the daimyo lord of the Takamatsu domain. The Zenigata Sand Coin is made entirely of sand, but its size and the pine trees around it make the sculpture relatively resistant to rain and wind. Local residents get together to repair it twice a year, in spring and autumn.
