Otai Castle

 

Otai Castle was built by Oda Toshisada. Otai was the home of the Oda Kiyosu Tozaemon branch. The castle was approximately measured 177 by 308 feet in length. Unfortunately, Otai was abandoned in 1584. Oda Toshisada's portrait is locatedcat Jitsujoji Ama City Aichi Prefecture. You will notice about his right eye. When Oda Toshihiro attacked Kiyosu in 1478 with the help of the Saito of Mino, Toshisada lost his right eye when it was struck by an arrow while fighting.  Otai Castle landmark was built in 1916. Otai Castle is a 10 minute walk from Meitetsu Shimo Otai Station. According to the Funada Senki, Toshisada passed away in 1495.

Nobunaga no tame!

New Kyoto Landmark

 There is new landmark in Kyoto. The Nobunaga era lodging landmark is located between Rokkaku Dori and Shinmachi Dori in the heart of Kyoto. Toyotomi Hideyoshi stayed at the lodging at time. Many thanks to my historian friends for showing me and locating the landmark.

Tenka no tame!
