Description
I'm more of a fan of the few "original" Japanese castles left, but the castle in Okayama is dramatic. Reconstruction work on this castle began in 1964 and was completed in 1966. In 1996 the rooftop gargoyles were gilded as part of the 400th anniversary celebrations.
The reconstructed castle is a concrete building complete with air-conditioning, elevators and numerous displays documenting the castle's history.
