The Flower Clock

Somewhere down The Flower Road is another famous landmark here in Kobe.  It's the Flower Clock.  Kobe people are lovers of beauty, don't you think so?
What is interesting about this clock?  It's powered by solar energy.  A few feet from this structure is this marker which indicates how much solar energy is being used by the clock at that moment.
                                                             Isn't this a marvelous thing?
Behind the Flower Clock is another structure that reminds me of a native Indian totem pole.  I don't exactly know what is it for , but it sure is interesting.
And...marring the beauty of the place is an unusual and ewww...sight!  A homeless drunk snoring and  dead to the world just behind the Flower Clock.  Oh...yes, you can find  this sight  on the main streets here too, but very, very rare.
