Kumamoto Ancient City is a master architect and a historic city built by Kato Qingzheng, a famous general of the Warring States Period in Japan, over a period of seven years. The periphery wall is extremely steep, because its steepness is called "the return of the martial arts", that is "the martial arts can not go up, can only go back" easy to defend and difficult to attack buildings. Tianshou Pavilion is the main building. The original building has been destroyed in the Southwest Civil War. Now it is a rebuilt building. It is worth seeing. It has a panoramic view of the scenery. The underground passage of Xiongben City, the dark way, does not open the door. There is only one primitive monument that has been preserved so far. It is not rebuilt. It is the only one that has been preserved. The most gorgeous is the living and governing palace of Xiongben City, the Royal Palace of Benwan. Although it is rebuilt, the magnificent parliament hall, the partition of the hall, the imperial dining room for preparing vegetables and tea, and the painted screen of the Japanese style, as well as the most dazzling Zhaojun Pavilion, the flowers and flowers on the ceiling, the figures on the screen, the complex and bright pictures, the colors and lustres are painted by Wang Zhao, China's four great beauties. The scenes of the emperor leaving the fortress are exquisite and worth seeing.
