Japanese Stone Sulpture by Susumu Ikegami

Japanese like their omens and superstitions. The figure-8, for example, is often taken as a symbol of financial growth and success; placing it here suggests a hope and a promise of continuing monetary gain. Why? Because the institution it adorns is a tax office. The message is: pay in your taxes with a smile and enjoy the benefits of a prosperous country.   Granite
