Star Fort in Japan
The Goryokaku Fort on the Japanese island of Hokkaido was originally built as a fort defensible by canons. Goryokaku Fort is shaped like a five-pointed star, surrounded by a hundred feet wide outer moat populated with Japanese Carp; it is now a museum favored for viewing cherry blossums.
