About Neko Goten Mnara wa Paka

Neko Goten ni mnara wa paka uliobuniwa ili kufanana na samani za kifahari. Muundo huu umetengenezwa kwa mbao za mwaloni na mierezi kutoka Mkoa wa Fukui nchini Japani na umekamilishwa kwa mikono na mafundi wa samani. Neko Goten una upana wa milimita 2200, kina cha milimita 600 na urefu wa milimita 1800. Ubunifu huu unachanganya ngazi, ubao wa kucharaza makucha, nusu-tufe iliyo wazi, mviringo unaozunguka, hifadhi ya mviringo, eneo la kulisha lenye sehemu ya kuhifadhi na eneo la kitanda. Eneo dogo la kuchezea linafaa kwa nyumba za kupanga, mikahawa ya paka na kliniki ambapo ukarabati kwa ajili ya paka hauwezekani.
