One weekend we travelled up to a place called Omitakashima to do some hiking. Outside the railway station was this tribute to Gulliver as in "Gulliver's Travels" the real title of which is "Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World, in Four Parts. By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships." We never did figure out the link between Omitakasima and Gulliver, but it was a really nice feature in an otherwise rather drab area.
