Himeji Castle Crystal Gifts and Collectibles
Himeji Castle is a Japanese castle located in Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture.
It is one of the oldest surviving structures from medieval Japan, and
has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a Japanese
National Cultural Treasure. Along with Matsumoto Castle and
Kumamoto Castle, it is one of Japan's "Three Famous Castles", and is
the most visited castle in Japan. It is occasionally known as Hakuroj?
or Shirasagij? ("White heron castle. One of Himeji's most important
defensive elements, and perhaps its most famous, is the confusing
maze of paths leading to the main keep. The gates, baileys, and outer
walls of the complex are organized so as to force an approaching
force to travel in a spiral pattern around the castle on their way into
the keep, facing many dead ends. This allowed the intruders to be
watched and fired upon from the keep during their entire approach.
However, Himeji was never attacked in this manner, and so the
system remains untested. These Himeji Castle wedding and corporate
crystal gifts are approximately 3 x 2.5 x 2 inches. From the Crystal
Palace Collection.
