Cute Japanese Bus Stops!
Gosh, just look at these pretty kawaii Japanese bus stops that looks like fruits! How adorable! They are in shapes of a strawberry, tangerine (lemon?), melon, water melon and a tomato.
The water melon and the strawberry are my favorites! I would put some cushions inside the strawberry and make it my home!
What’s the story behind this? The stops were built for the Travel Expo show in 1990 with the intent to serve as an attractive gateway for travelers entering the Nagasaki Prefecture. According to the Isahaya City web site, the creators got the idea for these unusual shapes from the famous story of Cinderella where the carriage turns into a pumpkin.

So cute, thanks for sharing! My husband always says that I have a distorted vision of Japan, that there aren’t Hello Kitty and Maneki Neko everywhere. I love showing him photos like these and proving him wrong ;D
Awww, those are so cute! Only in Japan would you find bus stops like these, lol. It’d be cool if they had buses shaped like fruits too :)
Yeah fruit buses would be awesome! :D
These are sooo cute!! I think I could live in one ^.^
AWWWWWWWWWWWW. I wanna sit in a strawberry bus stop. This is also not fair; the bus stops here in Chicago are lame.
So nice of you to post these photos online. I think Japan’s lil’ fruit bus stops are very cute and awesome. It’s very inspiring and goes to show that even in today’s busy world, one must always stop to think and see the world through the eyes of a child, to appreciate the beauty of life. The bus stops I’ve seen in my entire life are pretty awful and uninspiring.Great post!
OMG those are adorable! I’ve never seen such wonderful and creative bus stops! O_O
If the bus stops here were that cute there would be a lot more happy people in better moods. I want to visit Japan!
