Himeji Castle

22 comments

The Himeji Castle in Himeji, Japan, is a famous hilltop Japanese castle. The castle has many incredible details and is incredibly beautiful. The version we see now was built from 1601-1609, however the first fort on the hill dates back to 1333. The highest point of the castle reaches about 150 feet, or 46 meters. It is built of wood, stone, plaster, and tile. The complete castle complex is much bigger than what I have depicted in Lego. 

The model includes about 1,250 bricks, but would still be relatively affordable. The model has captured much of the incredible detail that Himeji Castle has offer without using an outrageous amount of elements, and I hope that you choose to support it. 

Thanks for visiting!
