This unbelievable castle is a wonderful display of paper craft, an art form that uses weighty sheets of paper to create complicated sculptures and art works. In this amazing piece by Japanese artist Wataru Itou, we really get to appreciate the detail, intricacy and patience a creation like this takes.
The name of the piece in Japanese is Umo no Ue no Oshiro. Back in 2009 it was on display for an exhibition at Umihotaru.
Umihotaru is an artificial island with a rest area consisting of restaurants, shops and amusement facilities.
