The journey to Goryokaku was an interesting one. My legs were very tired the entire time, but it was a beautiful little fort, full of nature and traditional Japanese design. The magistrates house is like what I want to live in when I die. It's wondrous. As was the sight of Goryokaku from the great tower.

Very cool! I understand the original fort was built in 1855. Yes?
