On the west exit area, which is on the opposite side of Akabane's bustling downtown, you'll find family-friendly stores like Ito-Yokado and Bivio.
As you exit the west exit, you'll see the shopping center Bivio standing prominently.
The Shichifukujin Square, which we're introducing this time, is located to the left in the photo, next to Bivio on the Ito-Yokado side.
The Shichifukujin Square is like a circular stage. It's easy to find as it's right next to the rotary.
Shichifukujin Square seems to be often used as an event venue for summer festivals and other events. Perhaps it's a famous square in the local area!?
Now, if you go towards the Ito-Yokado side from Shichifukujin Square, you'll find statues of the Seven Lucky Gods and benches!?
The space next to Daikokuten is empty, isn't it?
Stone benches are lined up along the sidewalk where the stone statues are placed, and about 20 people can sit and take a break.
There are trees planted on the sidewalk, which provide a natural screen and separate it from the pedestrian walkway, so you can relax and take a break surprisingly comfortably.
It's convenient to remember this as a place to eat your lunch near Akabane Station when you're short on time♪
Bishamonten is watching over you!
You can sit next to Fukurokuju too♪
Shichifukujin Square is a rather unique spot for a break, isn't it!
Why not take a relaxing break next to your favorite of the Seven Lucky Gods!?
It seems like it could also be used as a meeting spot at the west exit of Akabane Station.
So, why not use it as a resting place with benches in Akabane?
