Victoria Barracks, Built in the 1850s I think, during the Crimean War, as a last ditch defensive point in case the Imperial Russian forces invaded Australia (lol)
There's even a "keep" with "arrow-slots" for rifles, and it is essentially a fortress designed to deflect cannon fire.

China is even worse.

Most of the 'ancient' temples you visit were all torched during the Cultural Revolution. I went to the Shaolin Temple and the sign said something like 'Rebuilt in 1981' with zero explanation about why it was rebuilt. Worst part is most of them seem like they used the same cookie cutter design and materials when they rebuilt them so a ton of them look near identical.

How can you tell if they're not authentic looking if you haven't seen the originals? I mean, it's China; everything over there looks exactly the same, and you know what I'm talking about. Culturally, they were never into creativity or independence, but conformity and collectivism.

Also, "rebuilt" doesn't necessarily mean rebuilt from nothing. It could mean that parts of it were rebuilt or restored, as in the case of Machu Pichu or other ancient sites.

They're the same thing.

"Forts" are a little different. Back in the day, castles were owned and maintained by Kings or Lords etc. but forts could be created by peasants or non-royalty. Americans had forts back in the old days set up by fur trappers, for example, but they never had castles.

What's a ghost going to do to you? It can hardly even manifest itself into reality, why would you be afraid of it?

Jelly.
Russia didn't had enough mountains to get the stone necessary, and most castles were made from wood, so they didn't survive. A three dozen or so stone castles were destroyed for building material until Nicholas I issued an order of protection in 1826 or so - castles became useless as Russian borders were way far from core Moscow region.

Well, at leat we can boast of European castles in middle of Siberia.

>pinching, biting, hitting
Oh boy, I can get all that at a burger kiosk at 3 am on a friday. Not exactly frightening.

If I pulled out my cock and started masturbating, would the poltergeist give me a hand?

Astrakhan kremlin was built by Russians after 1558 or so with conquest of lower Volga Nogays by Don Cossacks. Previous Tatar keep, Haji-Tarkhan, was wooden.

Technically not a castle, but a fortress.

OK, now the most famous European castle there is.
Protip: walls were painted white before commies. And one of Moscow's epithets is Belokamennaya "The Whitestone One" for a reason.
