On our way back from Hiroshima to Kainan we decided to stop at Himeji Castle. This castle is the last of the Original castles in Japan that has been kept in its original state. It made all other castles in Japan that we had seen so far look pathetic. For Platty it was the only castle he would need to see. We braved the 38 degree weather and the 80% humidity to walk around the castle grounds and have a look inside. We had heard allot about Himeiji, and when we had to take our shoes of and wear slippers inside, we knew it was going to be good. It didn't let us down, it was amazing to see what a original Japanese Castle was actually like and we can best descibe Himeji as Grand. Photos galore were taken and it was time to head home for some sleep. Back to the Shinkansen we went.
Enjoy the pics!!
