The Real Thing  At Winter
Located near the center of Osaka Prefecture, Osaka Castle was built on flat land on the Uemachi Plateau, on the former site of the Ishiyama Honganji Temple. In 1583, Toyotomi Hideyoshi completed construction of this magnificent and splendid castle, which took three years in total. The castle fell in 1615 during the fighting known as the winter siege and summer siege of Osaka. Later, Tokugawa Hidetada rebuilt and greatly remodeled the castle. However, most of this remodeled Osaka Castle was destroyed during the Boshin War. Today's castle was restored in 1931, based on paintings of the original on folding screens. Together with those in Nagoya and Kumamoto, Osaka Castle numbers among Japan's three most important castles. - Canon

Osaka Castle In 1865
Localizado próximo ao centro da Cidade de Osaka, o Castelo de Osaka foi construído sobre o Platô de Uemachi, no lugar do antigo Templo de Ishiyama Honganji. Em 1583, Toyotomi Hideyoshi terminou a obra deste grandioso castelo, o que levou três anos. O castelo foi destruído em 1615, durante a batalha que ficou conhecida como "o cerco de Inverno e Verão de Osaka". Mais tarde, Tokugawa Hidetada reconstruiu e melhorou muito o castelo. No entanto, muito do que foi remodelado, foi destruído na Guerra Boshin. O castelo foi restaurado em 1931, baseado em pinturas do castelo original feitas em biombos. Juntamente com o Castelo de Nagoya e o de Kumamoto, o Castelo de Osaka figura entre os três mais importantes castelos do Japão.

Trabant - Old East German Paper Car - by Trabant.Ca


Photobucket

The Trabant is a car that was produced by former East German auto maker VEB Sachsenring Automobilwerke Zwickau in Zwickau, Sachsen. It was the most common vehicle in East Germany, and was also exported to countries both inside and outside the communist bloc. The main selling points was that it had room for four adults and luggage in a compact, light and durable shell and that it was fast (when introduced) and durable. With its mediocre performance, inefficient two-stroke engine, noxious fumes and production shortages, the Trabant is often cited as an example of the disadvantages of centralized planning; on the other hand, it is regarded with derisive affection as a symbol of the failed former East Germany and of the fall of communism (in former West Germany, as many East Germans streamed into West Berlin and West Germany in their Trabants after the opening of the Berlin Wall in 1989). It was in production without any significant changes for nearly 30 years with 3,096,099 Trabants produced in total. In 2008, Time magazine rated the Trabant as one of the 50 worst cars ever made. - Wikipedia

The Real Thing

O Trabant foi produzido na Alemanha Oriental pela extinta fábrica East German Auto Maker. Esse carro foi o "fusquinha" da Alemanha Oriental e exportado para os países do Bloco Comunista e para alguns vizinhos ocidentais. Os pontos altos deste carro: cabiam quatro adultos e bagagem em um modelo compacto, carroceria leve e durável e era considerado rápido para sua época. O nome Trabant significa satélite ou companheiro, camarada, e foi inspirado no satélite russo Sputinik. - Wikipedia
