Hiroshima Castle in Japan

Hiroshima Castle, also known as Carp Castle, in Hiroshima, Japan, was the home of the daimyō (feudal lord) of the Hiroshima han (fief). The castle was originally constructed in the 1590s, but was destroyed by the atomic bombing on August 6, 1945. The castle was rebuilt in 1958, a replica of the original that now serves as a museum of Hiroshima's history before World War II. (Wikipedia) This view is of the entrance at night.
