Daishi Park

Daishi Park is the town center. This unkempt jungle pays a poor homage to the founder of the town, whose cracked, decapitated statue stands tall in the middle of the park. If he could only see what had become of the town, the poor man would be horrified. The tall grass, encircling the legs of the statue hiding the activities of various types of poisonous insects, is cut only where it meets the depleted sidewalk. And even then it has managed to engulf parts of the sidewalk completely from view. Nonetheless, most events in town are held here and you can still see children running around (along with their parents trying to sneak off and leave them unattended).
