Japanese Students Created Monsters For This Cherry Blossom Festival!

Students of the Tokyo University Of The Arts constructed incredible sculptures of various animals for the Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival.

The Japanese have some extremely weird festivals, such as the recently held Kanamara Matsuri A.K.A. the penis festival. When they’re not tugging along giant phallic sculptures, their festivals often feature portable shrines, statues and sculptures of various subjects. A very similar thing was done by the students of the Tokyo University Of The Arts in celebration of the Tokyo Cherry Blossom Festival at Ueno Park.

These are some of the gigantic but stunning creations by the students :
