▶️Tsuruga Castle, known as an impregnable castle that withstood a fierce battle that lasted for about a month during the Boshin War

Red tiles were developed in Aizu to withstand the low temperatures and snowfall that are unique to the northern and snowy regions.

It is the only red-tiled castle tower in Japan that still exists.

▶️Digital art "Tsuruga Castle: A History Scroll of Light" was held at Hashirinagaya and Hoshimeshi Yagura.

A powerful projection mapping that used the entire wall.

At the end of the corridor, an original design lantern with the family crest was installed.

▶️A "gun gap" that was opened for the purpose of firing guns and arrows to fight off attacking enemies.

▶️There are 6 types of rooms in total, where information about the White Tiger Corps and other things appears when you approach a window projected on the wall.

▶️The Ten Rules
Among the 10 rules that were engraved into the Byakkotai soldiers from a young age, there are "no eating outside" and "no talking to women outside," which surprised me!
So they had strict teachings.
