Babasaki-mon Gate ruin became wide road
Are there any remains of the gate? According to a book, there are some remains of the gate. Is this real?
If we are going there, there are some stone walls and moats. However, the place where the gate remains became wide road. It seems that no trace the gate remains here.
At that time, there was only a wooden bridge, but a wide road is between Babasaki moat and Hibiya moat now.
