Kumamoto Castle

Do you know the Kumamoto castle? Have you ever been to the Kumamoto castle? Kumamoto castle was built by Kiyomasa Katoh about 400 years ago. It's a very inmportant building. And it is Kumamoto's pride.

I have never been to the Kumamoto castle though I'm from Kumamoto. So I wanted to go there and I went there last Thursday. There were a lot of tourists. They are not only Japanese but also foreigner. Especially, Korean!!! I think Korea is next to Japan so they can visit easier than other countries.

First, I went to a castle tower. It has fifth floors. There weren't elevators.b So we have to use many steers. It's very hard for me. hahaha Each floors,there were a lot of exhibits. For example, armor, containers and clothes.... I want to go time slip and watch thier lives at that time. The top of the castle tower is so beautiful. We can watch Kumamoto city from all bearings.

Second, I went to Uto Yagura. It was a very old building. It is smaller than the castle tower. But It was so cool.

Finally, I went to the Honmaru-Goten. It was rebuilt a few years ago. So it is very clean. Honmaru-Goten is famous for Shoukun no ma. It was a room of shougun. It was so gorgeous. I was so surprised and excited!!!! I recommend you will go there! I want to live such a room. hahaha
