Himeji Castle, Part 3

Alright, if you aren't sick of it...then here are more Himeji Castle pictures. Above is the main castle structure again.



Above: One of the many wells in the castle.

Below: The huge castle wall. I wouldn't have wanted to be the one who had to make that!
Here are many crest of the families that lived in the castle.

Above: A drainage ditch that I just thought was really cool.

Below: Me trying to beat the heat.


Above: A view from inside another structure.

Below: Another well.




Above: Nice detail on the wall.

This place is huge! It just keeps going and going as you climb higher and higher! That's why my pictures keep going and going!



There was a little museum inside on one of the floors. There were some cool pieces of armor there. Pretty freaking sweet, huh?


Above: A decorative cover for a nailhole. These were everywhere, but I thought they looked nice.
