Himeji

If you like castles, this is a good one to visit

Definitely see the castle while you’re here. If you make a day of it, go to Engyoji temple, too….

The castle is beautiful, but you have to climb all the way to the top by foot. The top room is so high above the city that it was used as a sort of primitive refrigerator, as the wind cooled everything at the top. I mentioned it in some posts on my online journal, Noah Dylan Goldblatt Live from Berlin

The prettiest castle in japan.

Just take a photo and come back down again…
