Building the Burimibashi Bridge in Minecraft
Part 66 of the Minecraft series focuses on building a bridge to connect the Honmaru and Ninomaru areas. The completion of the Honmaru area marks a significant milestone, with the construction of the vermilion bridge being the final step in achieving this goal.
Umemi Bridge: A Historical Inspiration
The Umemi Bridge, built in the Showa era, serves as the inspiration for the in-game construction. The historical significance of this bridge, which was built after knocking down a wall called Ashida-be, adds a sense of authenticity to the Minecraft project.
Building the Bridge
The construction process involves creating a stone wall from the inner moat, with careful attention to detail to ensure the accurate representation of the historical structure. The meticulous placement of pillars and the use of black oak trees contribute to the bridge’s realistic appearance.
Completing the Bridge
As the bridge girder and deck are constructed, the attention to detail becomes even more apparent. The use of spruce slabs and mangrove wood for the deck and parapet pillars adds a layer of intricacy to the bridge’s design, mirroring the historical Umemi Bridge.
Connecting Ninomaru and Honmaru
With the completion of the Umemi Bridge, the Ninomaru and Honmaru areas are seamlessly connected, marking the achievement of a significant milestone in the Minecraft project. The construction of a path around the bridge and along the inner moat further enhances the historical accuracy of the in-game representation.
Future Plans and Thank You Message
Looking ahead, the creator shares plans for the upcoming year, including the reproduction of Ninomaru and Sannomaru. A heartfelt thank you to the audience for their support throughout the year is expressed, along with an invitation to a New Year’s Eve celebration and a promise of continued content in the coming year.
