This Nihon Castle in Kyoto, Japan.
It is made nearly all of wood like the majority of castles in Japan. Many of them experienced heavy fighting. Note: In the long history of Japan no outside force was ever able to invade the country until WWII with the Americans. However, there were many internal conflicts, thus the castle belonging to a clan. Not only was Kyoto the home of many Buddhist monasteries it was also the headquarters of many clans. Today it is a major tourist attraction.
