  1. Matsumoto Castle, Nagano Prefecture, Japan. Completed around 1594, this classic wooden Japanese castle is a hirajiro (flat‑land castle), with large moats and thick walls, and was known as “Karasu‑jō” (the Crow Castle) because of its black exterior, designed to intimidate attackers. [1280x1280] [OC]
  2. The Floating Torii of Itsukushima Shrine, Japan, stands about 200 m offshore from the shrine and appears to float at high tide. The current gate was erected in 1875, but a torii has stood on this site since 1168, with earlier traditions going back to the 6th century [1280x853][OC]
  3. Obanazawa, Japan. The skyscrapers may go up, they fit in everywhere and nowhere, but old Japan always fits in on Japanese soil.
