The castle of Toyotomi Hideyoshi who achieved the unification of the world.
The gorgeousness of the castle tower, which is the best in history, has been reproduced as a 1/300 size papercraft.
(History of the castle)
Toyotomi Hideyoshi built Osaka-jo in 1583.
Hideyoshi, being the great battle expert he was, designed the most formidable castle ever built in Japan.
One large moat surrounded the whole castle with only two ways across it.
One of those was a small bridge that could be easily defended or even destroyed if necessary.
The inner grounds which contained the large main keep were actually built 3 levels above the water level of the moat.
Any attacker would have to scale three high stone walls and climb over 3 sets of turrets to get to the inner grounds.
No castle is invincible and in 1615 it fell to the Tokugawa forces. Hideyoshi's heir, Hideyori, committed suicide before being captured.
In 1620 Tokugawa completely renovated the entire castle and built a new main keep making the whole castle even bigger and grander than Hideyoshi's original.
In 1665 the main keep was struck by lightning and burned to the ground.
It was never rebuilt.
