After being swept away by a typhoon last year, Yayoi Kusama’s beloved pumpkin sculpture has returned to its iconic spot on Naoshima Island. The sculpture, which had been a symbol of the island since 1994, was reinstated amidst great celebration from locals and visitors alike. If you're planning a trip in August, the cloudy weather with temperatures around 28°C will be perfect for a leisurely stroll to admire this bright and cheerful artwork.
