Muza-chan's Gate to Japan

Imabari castle wall

Sat, April 6, 2019, by Muza-chan
The fastest and easiest construction technique used for the Japanese castle walls was uchikomihagi: the walls were built by using raw rocks held together with smaller stones inserted in the gaps.

The resulting wall was resilient and was also good looking, as you can see in this photo taken at the Imabari castle.
