Imabari Castle - Japanese Castles (sitios de interés)
Descripción del sitio
| Link Imabari Castle is a Mizujiro (castle in the sea) style Japanese Castle located on the coast line in Imabari, Ehime Prefecture on the island of Shikoku. Imabari Castle was constructed by the order of Todo Takoatora in 1604, as a replacement for Kokufu Castle, located on Mt Karako, which proved an unsuitable location to rule the area. In 1873 all the main buildings of Imabari Castle were demolished as part of the Meiji Restoration. In 1980 a modern reconstruction of the donjon (tower) was completed. |
