Samurai Bastion of the Warring States and Edo Periods
They bred and sold goldfish?
Yes. Even now it's a big business.
I suppose with a lot of people living in apartments and smaller homes fishtanks are a practical choice. Interesting there’s such a long history there.
Sounds a but fishy doesn't it? These were usually fish for garden ponds rather than aquarium type of smaller goldfish. These were often prized among samurai and the elite.
Yes a very fishy story 😆. I was thinking goldfish were tropical but they’re not of course.
It's the symbol of the city and is almost on all manhole covers.
