Osaka-jo Castle

Osaka, Japan

Of all the many castles I saw in Japan, this one struck me as the most Japanese. Maybe it is the cascading curved roofs that seem to pile up to the sky, or else the way it seems to want to hide in plain sight, or maybe it's the way it resembles a samurai on horseback; I can't tell, but I think "old Japan" when I see it.
