Japan: Himeji-jo Castle

Today I got five postcards: two from Japan, one from Malaysia and two from Serbia.

One of the cards from Japan shows the Himeji-jo Castle in the Hyogo Prefecture. The Himeji-jo Castle is the finest surviving example of early 17th-century Japanese castle architecture. Since 1993 it is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.


With a matching stamp:
Japanese Castles-Himeji-jo Castle (from set of five) (issued 03-04-2015)
with a special postmark showing also the Himeji-jo Castle


Thank You very much Keiko!
