Shades of castle days - towering and gated

            The gables and visual effect of many tiers is reminiscent of feudal-era castles in Japan. Purposeful or simply a gentle nod to ancestors (or aspiring to ancestry distinguished from peasant life), this large design is unlikely to be built between narrow city lanes. But outside the central city sometimes the big properties can be seen. This one includes a formal gate to mark the place for visitors to approach. Although the average person of 2024 Japan is focused on the present and what seems to be coming next, this example shows that the past can also be useful to the present concerns and how to proceed at upcoming decision points in one's life or work.
