Japan 2001 :: Japanese Castles
For a full description of this trip, go here.
Japanese castles are
quite the attraction for both Japanese and foreign tourists
alike. Throughout Japan there are dozens of these castles,
but many have been rebuilt due to damage sustained during
the war. Others, such as Matsumoto-jou in Nagano prefecture,
are still in their original form and have never been used
during wartime. (Click a thumbnail once to open the picture,
