Nagoya city opened a “castle tower subcommittee” of experts who considers the wooden restoration plan of the castle tower of Nagoya castle, and indicated a policy proposal that no elevator should be installed in the new castle tower after restoration...We will restore it to the genuine appearance before burning down in the war damage, aim to become a national treasure again,” the way the castle tower is now also means that the wheelchair cannot go up to the 7th floor observation room. In order to restore faithfully to historical facts, no elevators were installed
Nagoya's Mayor Kawamura is totally right in saying:
"We are excluding people with disabilities under the name of being faithful to historical facts."
The historical wooden castle reconstruction must also exclude flush toilets, running water, electricity/lighting, gift shops, fire/earthquake measures, glass windows, train/bus/taxi/modern-paved-road access, evil alien tourists, and especially they must BAN ALL FCUCKING JAPANESE COMMONERS.
