At a sand-themed museum near the Tottori Sand Dunes, a rat sand statue was completed next year, and the exhibition began.

The Sand Museum, located near the Tottori Sand Dunes in Tottori City, creates a sand statue every year at the end of the year to greet tourists visiting the New Year holidays.

Two staff members of the museum have made a statue of a rodent for the next year in five days, and the exhibition began on the 29th.

The statue resembles a rat starting to write and is made of approximately one ton of sand and is 1.3 meters high.

Many tourists from inside and outside the prefecture visited the sand museum and immediately took a commemorative photo.

A mother in her thirties, who came from Osaka with her family, said, "I was so cute and the children were happy. I want to take a lot of photos and go home."

Ayumi Nagato, a sand museum who created the sand statue, said, "I made it in the image of a cute rat. I want many people to see it and enjoy the New Year's atmosphere at the end of the year. .

The rat sand statue will be on display until next month.
