Want a castle???

Anybody out there want a Japanese castle? Here's a good one.

There's a little something going on in Japan among some people.

That's right, a castle! A castle.
A castle is on sale.



This is no silly joke. It's sold just like a normal house is sold.
Of course, water, gas and electricity is drawn just like any other house so you'll have a nice and comfy life.

It costs 41 million yen. Now, I don't know if this is expensive or cheap even though I live in Japan.
Looong time ago in Japan, during the age of war after war, the monster goal of a samurai (lower rank) was to become a lord of a country (=domain) and have his own castle.
So they survived each war hoping to gain more power to become a "master of one country, one castle".
Today, this hope of owning a country and a castle has turned into a hope to owning a house instead of having to have to rent one, and so the phrase is still used in modern Japanese society.

So this castle is now really killing castle-fans in Japan.
You can literally become a master of a castle (and that's much much more than a mere house!).

It's located in the mountains of Toyama Prefecture, that's on the west coast of Japan facing Japan Sea, so why not but it as a summer house? And boast off to your friends,

"wanna come over to my summer castle in Japan?" lol

Btw, I have nothing to do with this company or the real estate. Just so you know, this is not an advertisement so I can't take any responsibility!
