【町ごと残る“リアル城”】真壁城は今も構造が生きていた！歩いてわかる歴史の姿

You might think that the only remains of a castle are its earthworks and moats. Makabe Castle, located in Sakuragawa City, Ibaraki Prefecture, defies conventional wisdom: it's a castle where the entire town remains. From the main citadel and baileys to the castle town layout, the castle remains almost exactly as it was in the early Edo period. In this video, we'll go beyond the castle walls featured in the previous video and walk into the town itself, showcasing the charm of a "castle with a living structure." With reconstructed illustrations and on-site footage, you'll trace the connections from the castle center to the townhouses, and enjoy a journey through history. ★CastleTube Official Merchandise Now on Sale https://x.gd/Tsvqq ☆About Me Hello!
