Original Title: TIL 5 Kyoto temples have bloodstained ceilings taken from Fushimi Castle floorboards, site of a siege & mass suicide that delayed Ishida Mitsunari’s forces. This allowed Tokugawa leyasu to prepare for the battle of Sekigahara, unifying Japan. The ceilings honor the fallen samurai of Fushumi Castle.
