NAGAHAMA Castle Town_Let's go see the history that one samurai pioneered.

Описание: Today, we’re visiting Nagahama, on the northeastern shore of Lake Biwa, in Shiga Prefecture.
Nagahama is known for its deep historical roots and cultural heritage, including Nagahama castle.
It is a unique city in Japan, with a collection of historical sites that span centuries, from the roughly 450-year-old streets, to century old buildings and traditions.
Even in Japan, it is truly a special place.

From the end of the 15th century to the end of the 16th century, the Sengoku Period was a time of civil war and unrest throughout Japan. It’s also known as the Warring States Period.

Toyotomi Hideoyoshi, a prominent military commander and a central figure in Japan’s unification, built his very first castle here.
One of his first steps on his way to unifying Japan.
