A piece of Japan&Korea

Nagoya is the 4th largest city in Japan.

There is a big castle which has a long history,

now it is the good place　for sightseeing.

Nagoya Castle was constructed on the orders

of Ieyasu TOKUGAWA　 in order to secure an important position on the Tokaido highway.

Construction was completed in 1612.

In May 1945, during the air raids on Nagoya in the Second World War,

most of the buildings were burned down. Fortunately, however,

three corner towers, three gates, and most of the paintings on the sliding doors

and walls in the Hommaru Palace survived the fire, and have been handed down

as Important Cultural Assets.
