Such amazing detail; it has spires, a roller coaster, and a moving train - all made of paper.

Wataru Itou, an art student in Tokyo, created it by hand over a four year period. Rightfully titled A Castle On the Ocean, it's currently on exhibit at Umihotaru, a most unusual place - artificial island/parking lot/service area - located literally on the ocean between Tokyo City and Chiba Prefecture.
