Fukui Castle
Fukui; Tuesday, June 13, 2006: Believe it or not, there is a castle in Fukui. Two, actually. However, neither is in existence anymore. This section of old Fukui Castle is surrounded by a modern moat, and on top of the castle wall is a complex of government buildings for Fukui prefecture.
