Before the release of Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, you must create this group. LEGO Himeji Castle is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful models from the architecture series

LEGO Architecture is one of the less comprehensive LEGO series in terms of the number of sets available. In the past few years, no more than two collections have been released per year. After the highly acclaimed Pyramid of Khufu, more than a year later we have another beautifully reproduced architectural masterpiece. LEGO Himeji is a tribute to the largest castle in Japan and in my opinion the best set in the series. Now you can get it in a huge promotion on Amazon.

This amazing LEGO Himeji Castle is only available on Amazon

A block model of Japanese castle architecture from the early 17th century

Himeji Castle features a highly advanced defense system and ingenious security devices. The LEGO designer has been busy conveying its complex structure and functionality. Matching the dimensions of the model was crucial to ensuring that the main tower clearly stood out as a natural focal point.

The structure consists of 2125 elements (this is more than the pyramid of Khufu), It measures 19 cm high, 32 cm wide and 27 cm deep. Of course, it was not possible to fit all the buildings of the Himeji complex into such a small space, but the set still contains a lot of stairs, corridors and smaller elements. Some stunning interior details were also added, such as the wooden chapel on the top floor.

Purchase a piece of Japanese architectural history at a very reasonable price

The castle is surrounded by a picturesque garden with a simple design, which was deliberately formed so as not to overshadow the magnificence of the building. The delicate plants harmonize with the whole, and an additional attraction of the collection are the cherry trees which can be “decorated” with green leaves or blooming pink flowers.

Reasonable value for money

On the official website of the LEGO manufacturer, Himeji Castle costs PLN 749.99, but you can buy it much cheaper. You can get this set from Amazon for only PLN 519i.e. PLN 230.99 less.

In terms of price, Himeji Castle is cheaper than the Pyramid of Khufu. Not only does it introduce more elements, but it also introduces many completely new parts needed to recreate the characteristic “folded” corners of Japanese surfaces. Overall, this set boasts amazing detailing and interesting construction techniques at a really attractive price.

In addition to the tempting offer, the upcoming premiere of the game also encourages you to buy it Assassin’s Creed: Shadowswhich, as you probably know, will take place in Japan.
