Nagoya Castle, Japan : Assembly Instructions
View of completed model
Nagoya Castle, located in Nagoya, Aichi prefecture, is one of Japan's three great castles. Its roof is
adorned with golden "shachihoko," tiger-headed dolphin creatures, which have become symbolic of
Nagoya Castle. It is sometimes even referred to as "Kinshachijo" (Golden Dolphin Castle) or "Kinjo"
(Golden Castle). In 1610, Ieyasu Tokugawa ordered the daimyo (feudal lords) from Japan's west to build
the castle, and construction was completed over four years. The castle tower was threatened by
earthquakes and fires several times over the years, but aerial attacks during the Pacific War destroyed it
completely. The Nagoya Castle that stands today is a replica that was rebuilt after the war.
