Monument in Honor of the Five Heroes of Hisamatsu
In 1905, local islanders off Ishigaki Island discovered Russian fleets heading for Japan. Five of them went to Ishigaki Island to send a telegram to authorities informing the latter about the incident. The monument-a statue of five posts sustaining a small boat-was built in recognition of these five islanders' courage and sense of nationalism.
