castle town

In 1949, a lot of buildings were destroyed by a bog fire around JR Akashi station. And then, many people built their buildings coppered to stop the spread of a fire. This building with green outer wall is one of them. Its ground plan is the octagon and it has an outstanding look in atmosphere of the port of Akashi.
