Manhole Monday - Ageo City

"Manhole Monday" is a hashtag and story theme on Instagram.  For years I collected and shared Manhole photos on my social media accounts and on my personal blog too. Moreover, I did a post here on City-cost too, with several photos of manholes. You will also find other manhole posts by different authors on City-cost too. I got out of the habit of taking photos of manholes earlier in the year, so I am making an effort to snap them again. 

If you are new to manhole covers, make sure to check out some of the manhole cover posts on City-cost. But just briefly - the manhole covers in Japan have designs / art on them. The image changes from city to city. And as you will see in this selection from Ageo City, the image even changes within a city. In other words, one city may have more than one manhole cover design. The images on these particular Ageo city manhole covers are based on the city's mascot. Aren't they cute!?
