On 14 April 2016, a massive earthquake (magnitude 6.2) struck Kumamoto prefecture and damaged numerous structures of the Kumamoto Castle complex including the main castle. Routes and pathways were still open and available for visitors. During our visit, efforts for reconstruction of Kumamoto castle were under way as can be seen in the background of this photo. The Uto Yagura turret (foreground), on the other hand, survived the quake and remains intact.
Kumamoto Castle suffered huge damages during the strong earthquakes in May. I was there earlier today & saw this from the Kumamoto City Hall observation deck. Many families who lost homes still seek help from the City Hall. Some parts of the foundations were damaged as well as roofs. Castle is closed. #endlesssummer
As can be seen, the roof tiles were damaged from the May earthquakes. It must have been very scary for Kumamoto residents 3 months ago. The quakes can be felt almost on the North Kyushu island! #endlesssummer

Spending more time traveling up and down escalators. Since there is no drop-off for the hotel itself we had to park our car for 1 hour just for dropping off the baggage. Room is smaller than expected and there is no room to open baggage.
