Golden "shachihoko" statues at Nagoya Castle

A pair of iconic golden statues of "shachihoko" -- a mythical half-tiger, half-fish creature -- are displayed on the premises of Nagoya Castle in Aichi Prefecture, central Japan, on March 20, 2021. Usually adorning the roof of the castle, the statues were taken down for public display for the first time since the 2005 Aichi Expo to bolster the local economy amid the coronavirus pandemic.
