A storehouse above the moat, not sure what its original use was, but unlike the imperial feel of the Osaka Castle, there is the structure and colour of this building generate a sense of peace and calm.

A relatively "clean" shot of the Castle. Somehow the white/gold/black/moss colour combination just works.
