Teave

Kiired faktid: The fort's unique star shape was designed to optimize defense against cannon attacks, inspired by European military architecture. It served as a key site during the last battle of the Edo period's Boshin War.

Esiletõstmised: From the observation deck, the fort's perfect five-pointed star shape unfolds with striking symmetry against the lush greenery, especially captivating during cherry blossom season. Visitors can spot remnants of old moats transformed into serene canals, creating a peaceful contrast to its turbulent history.
