Suo Kokuga Ato

What travelers say:

Follow a long slip of steps to the tall top, where I met a big pavilion that I liked very much. It was old and lacked color, and the wood floor was patched. But it was wide and large, with a wide view and very comfortable to stay. And it felt like spring would have a spring breeze. The pavilion, which insisted that it was a building, was built in the five years of Wenzheng (1822). At that time, the master wanted to build a tall five-fold tower, and then experienced the capital cut off, years of war, and finally broke off. In Meiji, seven years, they laid wooden floors on the built towers and changed them to a large pavilion called Chunfeng Building. Under the pavilion, the tower of the five-story tower looks particularly solid. It seemed as if the Lord of the Skulls could be seen climbing up this high ground, overlooking his city, and then saying, Let's build a tall five-story tower here!
