It is very impressive that officials involved in Okayama's tourism are aware of Momotaro who was the protagonist of the Japanese folk tale : the boy who was born from an peach and lived with poor grandparents who didn't have their own child in a remote village and traveled with friends(dog, monkey and pheasant) to defeat the demons, brought the treasure home and made the grandparents well-being better with gratitude. . Travelers who come to Okayama by train will meet Momotaro as soon as they leave the station building. When they receive more information about Momotaro, the impression will increase and was known why Okayama people love Momotaro and created Momotaro symbols throughout the city.
