Streets of Himeji, Japan GoPro 1080p

Himeji is most famous for its magnificent castle (Himeji Castle), widely considered to be Japan's most beautiful surviving feudal castle. The castle is designated both a national treasure and a UNESCO world heritage site. With half a million inhabitants, Himeji is the second largest city of Hyogo Prefecture (after Kobe). It can be reached in less than one hour from Osaka or Kyoto and is also a popular stopover on journeys along the Sanyo Shinkansen. During World War II, Himeji was selected as a target by the United States' XXI Bomber Command because it served as an essential rail terminal and contained two large military zones. On July 3, 1945, 107 aircrafts took off to bomb Himeji. During the raid, 767 tons of bombs were dropped on Himeji, destroying 63.3% of the built-up areas of the city. However, the famous Himeji Castle remained remarkably unscathed, even with one firebomb being dropped on it. This has resulted in many Himeji residents believing that the castle is divinely protected; Himeji, Japan 2019. Shots were taken with GoPro Hero 7 Black 2.7K downsized to 1080p HD.
