[Japanese Castle Tour] Golden Shachihoko ✨ Nagoya Castle

Touring Japanese Castles ✨
Nagoya Castle, with its shining golden shachihoko (lion-like creatures) 🏯
Constructed by Tokugawa Ieyasu, this castle in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture, features two golden shachihoko (lion-like creatures) shining on its tower. Nagoya Castle is a flat-topped castle built within a moat. Its stone walls are engraved with the seals of the samurai families who quarried and transported the stone. ✨🏯
We recommend exploring the stone walls while searching for these seals. 🏯✨
