The few Japanese castles which were reconstructed by using traditional construction methods and materials are valuable, especially for their interior. The main keep of the Shiorishi castle was reconstructed by using the original high quality wood, Aomori white cedar, assembled without metal nails. It looks and feels amazing, a true reconstruction of the original castle.
