"I found a cute building in Kyoto."
As you can see, the front of the building has remarkable facial features, with the entrance to the being a mouth, the windows on the second floor as eyes, and the middle section being a nose. As mame points out, the building's design is quite cute, with many on Twitter likening it to Woody from Toy Story or C-3P. Others however pointed out that if you were to stumbled upon it at night, it could be quite the scary sight.
As for the building itself, it's said to simply be a general goods store--although there's nothing general about its appearance!
