Free Windmill Blueprints

November: Once Lake Biwa and Hikone Castle.

In November I had to see my German-learning student at Biwa. Or rather ... once around: D
was much to see it but not, it was just a lake, on whose banks are usually on the sides of streets udn usually everything is plastered with some cafes, restaurants, holiday apartments and the like .. HOWEVER, there was ebbed, and there really 80% of these facilities were already closed, it's my impression of the Lake Biwa more .... was a little spooky.

ansich But the lake, so without a city or similar was beautiful. I'm there for the first time ever seen in my life freely walk around monkeys! However, just down the street and they are also immediately weggehopst. , _, And ... The other interesting one was Torii which simply stood in the water. naja.

In the end our little tour we have been at the Hikone Castle! What I can only recommend, because it is still largely in original condition (except museum and elevator inside): D





Once her view of the lake from the east . : D

Again. Looks like in MeckPomm XD

In between, a shrine, whose name I've forgotten already, I Dödel T_T

again

THEN! Hikone! So Hikone Castle! : D

with garden in front.

And Tea Pavilion

where you could sip a real green tea and sweets of course this! With an unobstructed view of the small pond


behind then the palace itself!


inside the castle was actually still quite original so ... without much Gedöhns or jewelry, which I was personally much more fascinating!

Actually, it was also nciht particularly large. Very narrow, little rooms.

The view of the lake. Apparently, the castle was once the lake, but the water level has dropped well over the last few year Hudnert pretty. was

AND FURCHTBARRRRR steep stairs there! So really awful steep. Sun .. really steep. We had to do quite well, as to come up and down, sometimes to say nothing of the old Japanese, who are creeping up there more than climbing.

bridge to the castle. Very often the backdrop for historical drama XD

And, because so is beautiful and interesting art historical: THE Hikone setting screen. However, only one copy

of connected garden villa: D

Interior of the villa. The small stage had ne no-but the was in the courtyard and as you could actually do not really photos.

The small island, whose name I forget, in the middle of the lake: D
