Kyoto Nijo Castle southeast turret

Sat, September 23, 2017

After the main keep was destroyed by a fire caused by lightning, the only military buildings of the Nijō castle are the turrets and the gates, declared in 1952 as Important Cultural Properties. Photographed here in an autumn setting is a corner turret, the Southeast Yagura.
