Geocache Description:


Oh! Welcome to Nagoya Castle! 
You have come to a place of great history, a fortress built by the mighty Tokugawa Ieyasu himself—one of the most magnificent castles in all of Japan!
Behold the grand keep towering before you! At its peak, ”Kinshachi”(Golden Tiger-Fish Roof Ornaments)  glisten under the sun, shining brilliantly as a symbol of power and prestige. A sight truly worthy of awe! The mighty stone walls, constructed under the guidance of the legendary warrior Kato Kiyomasa, form an impenetrable stronghold. No enemy could easily breach these defenses—this castle was built to stand against any siege!
Yet, time is relentless, and the original keep was lost to the fires of war. But fear not, for Nagoya’s spirit remains unshaken! The castle has been faithfully restored, standing tall once more, captivating all who visit.
Now, take your time, explore the grounds, and immerse yourself in the echoes of history. Let the golden brilliance of Nagoya Castle leave its mark upon your soul!  Regular sized caches are waiting for you, too.
 
 
よくぞ参った、名古屋城へ!
ここは、かの徳川家康公が築かせた、尾張の誇る天下の名城じゃ。

見よ、この堂々たる天守を!その頂には 金色 に輝く「金シャチ」が鎮座し、陽光を受けて燦然と輝いておる。まさに豪華絢爛、威風堂々たる姿であろう。城の石垣は、名将・加藤清正公らが築き上げた 鉄壁の要塞で候。どこから攻めようとも容易には破れぬ、まさしく難攻不落の城でござる。
 
されど、時は流れ、かつての天守は戦火に消えおった…。なれど、名古屋の誇りは消えぬ!見事に復元された金城は、今もなお多くの者を魅了しておるぞ。

さぁ、ゆるりと城内を巡り、歴史の息吹を感じるがよい!名古屋城の 黄金の輝き、その目にしかと焼き付けるのじゃ!!レギュラーサイズのキャッシュも待っておるぞ!
