The top of the castle is called castle tower "tennshukaku".
It is thrown open now as an observatory.
Good photography is possible.
To look around the inside and outside of the castle.
The symbol of the castle, etc...
The wall is painted with the plaster.
The samurais have to always prepare for many battles.
The entrance consists of it particularly firmly.
I introduce four Japanese national treasures Castle.
Most of these are maintenanced of as construction those days.
Therefore they have attractive characteristics such as structure, interior decoration, treasures...
Himeji Castle / Hyōgo Prefecture
Matsumoto Castle / Nagano Prefecture
Hikone Castle / Shiga Prefecture
Inuyama Castle / Aichi Prefecture
Matsumoto-jo Castle is foundation 1505. I remember that the trace of innumerable swords was left to pillars.
Inuyama-jo Castle is foundation 1469. The descendant of the feudal lord held it personally until late years. However, it was contributed to the country because maintenance cost was enormous.
Most castles are owned by government.
I have been to these two castles.
What a beautiful and fascinating place! Thank you for taking us there! :o)

I can only imagine the history of his place. It is a wonderful building and you photographed it very nicely. I feel like I'm walking around and exploring.
ReplyDeletethese are first, fantastic photos! Well done:) And also, thank you for the story!
ReplyDeleteI just heard about an earthquake in your part of the world, are you & your family alright? Let us know!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you're all alright! Thank GOD! Be safe!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're safe. These photos of the castle are amazing; so different from the castles in England I've seen. These are beautiful...not at all foreboding.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that you and your family are okay!
ReplyDeleteThis castle has an incredible charisma, I would love to touch these walls and experience the history first hand ... what a moving moment, these stones have witnessed what a great story was written there! Thanks for these varied impressions, and the excellent background material.
ganz herzliche Grüße und 運の間で最高の

Very beautiful castle, Ruma. I saw Kyoto Castle, but only from a distance. It is wonderful that these structures are still standing for all to enjoy!
