Recycling broken parts of the past in service of the present

            According to Wikipedia (English) the connection of Ise Jingu to the Imperial Japan's military actions in the 1930s and 1940s is the reason that the city was bombed six times during WWII, including the biggest raid by 93 B-29 Superfortresses on July 28, 1945. The result of bombs and fire was loss of 39% of the city's buildings. So perhaps the rubble is what built this sturdy wall.
