Japanese artistic manhole covers, Mito-chan

Fri, May 1, 2015

Mito-chan, the mascot of Mito city, is a cute little girl with thick twin-tails, wearing plum blossoms in her hair and dressed like Mito Kōmon, a character from a famous jidaigeki period drama.

Mito-chan is a quite new mascot (she was presented to the public just about 2 years ago), but she is already famous in her home city of Mito. So, no wonder that she is also present on the city’s artistic manhole covers…
