Get Along with the Future of Takaoka I was born in Takaoka in 1933. I played in woods and a river here and such experience had great affect on my body and soul. Although time changes Takaoka, I hope this park remain as an oasis which gives dreams and creativity for children. July 1994 Fujio F. Fujiko
