On Tuesday, I went to Himeji Castle (姫路城). It is a World Heritage Site and one of Japan's "Three Famous Castles." Built in the mid-16th century, it is one of the oldest surviving structures from mediaeval Japan. Himeji is the most visited castle in Japan, and has been used in many movies (including Ran).
