Architectural Masterpiece

#summervacay Himeji Castle—affectionately known as the “White Heron Castle”—is Japan’s most iconic and remarkably well-preserved feudal fortress. Located in Himeji, Hyōgo Prefecture, it’s a must-visit destination in Kansai. Architectural Masterpiece: Built and expanded between the 14th–17th centuries, the castle spans 83 buildings on a 107 ha site, featuring multiple keeps, maze-like corridors designed to confuse attackers, and sophisticated defensive features like loopholes and drop-gates . #travel #japan #japantour #thingstodo
