Description
Kakinohana Castle is on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean. No accurate details of the construction of this castle exist, but legend states it that it was built by the second son of Minton Aji, an Okinawan ruler around the 14th century.[3]
The castle is noted for having a spring, the Kakinohana Spring (垣花樋川, Kakinohana hija).[4][5]

gollark: "Offline" in the sense of "not visible to the internet", I haven't burned it to blu-rays or something.
gollark: I have offline low-resolution copies of styro's videos for if (when) YouTube does something stupid personally, too.
gollark: The annoying thing is that bedrock edition is much better technologically but not moddable in any significant way, not usable on Linux and overly monetized.
gollark: It's going to be my website's april fools' joke.
