Renovation of Hirosaki Castle

AOMORI, Japan - Water removal begins Nov. 25, 2014, from the moat surrounding the central tower of Hirosaki Castle in the city of Hirosaki, Aomori Prefecture, in northeastern Japan, ahead of a planned landfill of a moat area to repair the stone wall. The city government has decided to rebuild part of the wall, the first such work in about 100 years, after the discovery of a bulge, a sign of potential collapse, with the work expected to complete by the end of March 2024.
