"Ako Castle -The Beginning of the Story- "was planned and produced on behalf of the Ako City Board of Education. Ako Castle was built during the Edo period and the restored castle ruins are currently designated as a national historic site. We targeted foreign tourists and locals interested in castles and its history. In addition to the beautiful scenery, Dr. Isoda also gave a passionate commentary to make the video more lively and appealing.
