  Incident at Honnoji Information
This occurred in Honnoji, a temple in Kyoto, ending Nobunaga's quest to consolidate centralized power in Japan under his authority.
After capturing Honnoji, Mitsuhide attacked Nijo Castle, also in Kyoto, where Oda Nobutada, eldest son and heir of Nobunaga, had moved after he had sent the kōtaishi away.
After trying to persuade Oda vassals in the vicinity to recognize him as the new master of former Oda territories, Akechi entered Azuchi Castle and began sending messages to the imperial court to boost his position and force the court to recognize him as well.

Historically, there was the famous Honnoji triple-ko incident in a game between Nikkai and Kashio Rigen.
Nikkai, later to become Honinbo Sansa, was enlisted as a go instructor by Oda Nobunaga, the Daimyo whose conquests led in time to the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate.
Unfortunately a triple ko occurred and the game had to be abandoned.

In 1582 Nikkai played a famous game with his leading rival, Kashio Rigen, in the presence of Nobunaga at the Honnoji temple in Kyoto.
The night after the game, Nobunaga's ally Akechi Mitsuhide (1526–1582) suddenly rose in rebellion, surrounded the Honnoji temple with his troops and killed Nobunaga.
Because of this, a triple ko was thereafter regarded as inauspicious.

Following a failed campaign to bring the western provinces of Japan under heel, trusted Nobunaga general Akechi Mitsuhide returned the forces under his command to Kyoto, surrounded the Honnoji Temple, where Nobunaga was residing, and forced the leader to commit suicide in a daring military coup.
Getting there: Honnoji Temple is a 10-minute walk from Keihan Sanjo Station, 10 meters away from the entrance to the Teramachi shopping area located directly across the street from Kyoto City Hall.
Japan certainly does not lack for ghost stories and "haunted" areas; the "suicide woods" of the area under Mt. Fuji, for example, have been the subject of reams of blood-chilling tales over the years.
