Geocache Description:


Nagoya Castle was completed in 1615 by the Shogun, Tokugawa Ieyasu.  Topped with golden shachihoko, votive tiger-fish roof devices, and boasting the largest floorspace of any tower keep, Nagoya Castle and its magnificent Hommaru Palace were operated as a military facility.
Nagoya Castle was Japan’s first castle to be designated a National Treasure.  Even after wartime air raid destruction, it was deemed historically important enough to be designated a National Historic Site.

The cache is placed somewhere in the east of Nagoya Castle's Front Gate.
It contains only a log sheet.  Bring a pen with you.

-- Japanese --

1615年(慶長20)、徳川家康によって建てられた名古屋城は、黄金の鯱を頂き、史上最大の延床面積を誇った大天守、絢爛豪華な本丸御殿、さらに鉄壁の守りを固めた要塞としての機能を備え、 城郭として国宝第一号に指定された名城です。
戦災で焼失後も、国内屈指の城郭として国の特別史跡に指定され、復元された本丸御殿などが、往時の姿を鮮やかに伝えてくれます。

キャッシュは名古屋城正門の東方のどこかに隠してあります。
キャッシュにはログシートしか入っていません。ペンをご持参ください。
