Seeing stars? ⭐ It’s not just you! Located in the centre of Hakodate City in Hokkaido Prefecture, lies the impressive Goryokaku Fort – the star shaped pentagon ‘star fort’ that claims the title of the first western-style fortification in Japan. Surrounded by a moat, this fascinating piece of architecture is best seen from Goryokaku Tower, for aerial views of not just the fort, but the city surrounds. 🏙
