If you ever visited Atsuta Shrine and the Nobunaga Victory Wall, did you noticed anything on the ground? Believe or not, there are stones on the ground near the Victory Wall. Why? After Nobunaga's construction of the Victory Wall, he ordered a gate to be built in the early 1570s. It was known to be a national treasure. Unfortunately, the gate was destroyed during WW2 and only the stones remain. The gate was known as Kaizoumon. The black and white picture above is what the Kaizoumon looked like before it was destroyed. When you visit Atsuta Shrine in the near future, remember the stones nearby the Nobunaga Victory Wall.
Nobunaga no tame!
