Everyone eats fruits, but have you ever seen a melon which costs more than a car? Yes, this is not a joke. Yūbari King Melon grown in Japan is considered to be the most expensive melon in the world. This fruit is not only famous for its sweetness and fragrance, but has also shocked the world with its price. A pair of this melon grown in Yūbari, a small town in Hokkaido province of Japan, costs five million yen (about Rs 29 lakh).
Why is it so special and expensive?
Now you might be wondering why a simple looking fruit costs so much? Actually, Yūbari King Melon is not an ordinary fruit but a luxury item. Its cultivation is done in a very special way. Only one melon is left on each plant so that there is no loss in its sweetness, size and taste. Farming is done in a completely greenhouse control system where temperature, humidity and light levels are maintained precisely. This is the reason why the shape of every fruit is perfectly round and a net-like natural design is formed on its peel, which makes it different from other melons.
It is considered a symbol of respect in Japan!
This melon is given like a royal gift in Japan. In Japan, when a person wants to honor someone or send a special gift, he gives a pair of melons as a gift. The people there consider it a “symbol of respect”. That is why it is auctioned every year and rich people do not hesitate to spend crores of rupees to buy it.
