Thousands of Maneki-Neko figurines on display at Goutoku Temple in Tokyo, Japan, Jan 26, 2016. The temple and the surrounding area is well known for its massive collection of Maneki-Neko, literally beckoning cats. The cats are a common Japanese charm thought to bring good luck to the owner. They are often displayed at the entrance to shops and restaurants but Goutoku Temple goes one further and displays over 1000 cats throughout its ground. [Photo/CFP] |
