If you take a look back on the map I posted a few posts back, you'll see that we've been following the JR Sanyo line mostly, as it goes to Osaka. It's perfect for poor college students. I'll make a final post about it at the end of this long set of blog posts.
Himeji Castle |
One of the main gates |
Those dots on the top are crows, which made this castle even more creepy like. As to preserve it's beauty, it constantly undergoes reconstruction. If you have noticed, the castles I post are either white, or black. Kumamoto Castle, one of the first castles I posted about, is jet black.
Inside Hallway |
**Admission for the castles I have been to are usually 600yen or less. They rip off a tiny piece of the larger ticket which has a beautiful picture of the place you are going and therefore is a lovely keep sake! Larger shrines do this as well. Many historical places in Japan are close to free!**
This is not a castle. This is death. This thing is about the size of my palm and is on every tree. More like five per tree. They are terrifying and annoying. Their stupid 'ween ween' noise alerts me that it is bloody hot out. Just look at how gross this nasty thing is.
