July 5, 2014 - Trip to Kanto area ~Saitama~
Last month, I traveled to Gyoda, Saitama which locates near Tokyo. Gyoda is quite small and countryside area but I love this place and its history. The movie called "Floating castle" was made in 2012, and the historical battle between Ishida Mitsunari (Actually Toyotomi Hideyoshi) vs. Narita Nagachika which is shown in the move was occurred in Gyoda area. Here is the site talking about the movie ( http://www.screendaily.com/reviews/the-latest/the-floating-castle/5048181.article )
