広島城 Hiroshima Castle - Outer Wall Area (Ninomaru)
The castle was originally constructed in the 1590s, but was largely destroyed by the atomic bombing on August 6, 1945. The main keep was rebuilt in 1958, a replica of the original that now serves as a museum of Hiroshima's history before The Second World War, and other castle buildings have been reconstructed since.
Mōri Terumoto, one of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's council of Five Elders, built Hiroshima castle between 1589 and 1599.
During the final months of World War II, the castle served as the headquarters of the 2nd General Army and Fifth Division, stationed there to deter the projected Allied invasion of the Japanese mainland. For many years, it was believed the whole castle structure was blown away by the atomic explosion that destroyed Hiroshima, but evidence newly discovered in 2010 suggests that the explosion only destroyed the lower pillars of the castle, and the rest of it collapsed as a result.

Panoramic view of Nyon terracotta rooftops with Lake Geneva and the Alps in the distance, embodying tranquility.
A peaceful view of a stone-paved path bordered by a white wall with traditional roof tiles, leading to a large wooden sanmon gate with a gabled tiled roof. Here, visitors and worshipers pass from the secular world into the serene, sacred grounds of the Buddhist temple.

So it must be time for a drink (We are a bit short of yardarms round here!).
Taken at 12:)1 on 18/03/24, my favourite seat outside the Eclipse in Winchester has been in the shade since September! but with the sun over the roof of the Museum for half an hour it was nice to enjoy a pint sitting in the sun!
