The page of "Ruins of Nagoya Castle" as "Your Destination in Japan" now has been uploaded:
Nagoya Castle was one of the three biggest castles in Japan.
It is well known that the castle tower of Nogoya Castle has golden fabulous dolphinlike fishes,
called "Kin no Shachihoko" or "Kinshachi" in Japanese, on the top of the top roof.
To the west of "Ninomaru" Bailey, the Inner Bailey, "Honmaru", is located.
"Uchibori", the inner moat, surrounds "Honmaru" and two corner towers protect the south side of "Honmaru".
After passing through the Omote-Mon Gate, you will see the castle tower of Nagoya Castle.
The original castle tower remained until 1944.
It was the first national treasure of Japan designated in 1930.
However, the treasure was destroyed by airstrikes at World War II.
The current castle tower of Nagoya Castle was rebuilt in 1959.
In front of the castle tower, the wooden main palace building is being rebuilt with traditional crafts.
The pictures of fusuma are also under being remade.
