Himeji Castle (Himeji-jo), built in the early 17th century, represents the highest achievement in Japanese castle architecture. Designated as a national treasure of Japan in 1931, the castle was registered as the World Cultural Heritage in 1993 as the first cultural site in Japan. The registration occurred because the castle has kept its original design at the time of construction, such as turrets, stone walls, gates, and moats, which still survive today. The main castle keep (Dai-ten-shu) connected with three small keeps (Ko-tenshu) linked by passage turrets (Watari yagura) remains perfectly in their original forms. Because of its elegant appearance totally covered with white plaster,the castle has been compared to a white bird flying off to the sky. Its famous nickname is White Heron Castle.
