Waving Jizo Statue

There is a Jizo statue on Mount Rokko in Hyogo Prefecture that people say waves at passersby. Just as its name states, it appears to be waving when you like at it, like saying, “Bye bye.”

But you must be careful if you look at the Waving Jizo when you’re driving by. If it looks like it’s waving goodbye then there’s no problem, but if it seems to be beckoning you instead, that means you will soon be involved in an accident…
