The news here is not about the loss of the castle so much as the evidence that it provides that no earthquake of this magnitude has occurred in this area in the last 2000 years. Even if it had stood it would likely have to be demolished. In fact most of the buildings we see still standing in the newscasts will have to be demolished. In the Christchurch quake only 3 buildings collapsed directly from the quake, but almost the whole of the city center had to be demolished due to structural damage.

Sad to lose a treasure like this. >

At least it wasn't through war. I'd prefer to lose things like this to natural events than human stupidity. >

I'd have to agree. There's a difference between natural and human evils in our minds I think. >

This way it lasted as long as it could rather than humanity wrecking it
