Nagakute's Tokugawa Rock

Out and about for more Japan Tourist articles, this time a quick trip to the old battlefield at Nagakute. First stop was the site where the bulk of the ferocious fighting took place, the battlefield marker above the museum, and the site of the massacre of the samurai general Ikeda and his troops...
After that, a quick trip to Iroganeyame, a national Historic site, and where Tokugawa Ieyasu set up his headquarters, and the rocks he covered in tiger skins to sit on and direct the battle can be seen.
