Sugamo (Tokyo):
This mailbox features Sugamon, the mascot of the Sugamo neighborhood in Tokyo. The name “Sugamo” literally means “duck’s nest” and is believed to come from a large pond in the area where ducks used to nest.
I started Postcrossing this year. We had an ugly mailbox, but I never gave it a second thought. I had my husband put me up a new one and I decorated it for my new hobby. Those are magnets! I never knew those existed. You can change them out for holidays or seasons!
After National Heritage Day last May, here at Main Post Offfice in Santiago, Chile they put a historic postbox for outgoing mail Now I send all my postcards from that postbox, it’s so beautiful.
Special postbox at top of Snaefell,highest point in Isle of Man at 2036 feet. For a small extra charge, mail posted here receives a special postmark and is transported via the electric mountain railway.
