Located in Hakodate, Hokkaido, Goryokaku is a star-shaped Western-style fortress completed in 1864 and the site of the final battle of the Boshin War. Today its moats and ramparts form a park with around 1,500 cherry trees, and the best way to admire its perfect five-pointed shape is from the nearby Goryokaku Tower.
