I visited the Himeji Castle this summer. It was raining profusely but that didn’t stop how majestic the experience was for me. Building the set after seeing it in person was truly special. The small details of including the purple alter and other significant historical relics was really cool. Great set.
This build was fairly easy but not boring. The finished set looks great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Really fun in-depth build! Hope there's more like it or a Korean line in the future!

The build is a really fun one with a lot of little hidden bits so far. The details are crazy. But...
I'd love to be able to finish this build. In bag 2, I was missing a piece, but luckily it was a really common piece and I had a spare from another set. Everything was going great until bag 8... missing another piece. And this one is not only integral to the structure, but it's one I definitely don't have a spare of. I've put in a request for a replacement brick, but they are apparently really backed up, because it's been almost 3 months since they said it was ready to ship.
I'm just really hoping the 9 bags I have left to go don't have anything missing, or I'll have to wait even longer.
I've done about a dozen builds in 2025 so far, from poly-bags to over 1300 piece builds, and this is the first with missing pieces. It's the biggest and most expensive one, so I am really bummed about it.
