Nagoya Castle




I will introduce about Nagoya castle. The opening hours at the Nagoya castle are 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. December 29 to January 1 is close. People need 500 yen to enter the Nagoya castle. Ieyasu Tokugawa had putted up the Nagoya castle in 1609. Do you know Tokugawa family? There are a golden shachihoko on the top. It is very famous so it stands for Tokugawa power. It is pure gold and its weight is two hundred and fifteen kilograms. People believed that the killer whale will begin to rain and it avoids dry weather so it put on top of the Nagoya castle. Its’ goods are sold in Nagoya castle. I went to go there last April. I was moved when I saw the Nagoya city from an observatory. I recommend it.
