I decided to include this location only because of its beautiful area around the Castle. I highly DO NOT recommend going inside the Castle and here is why (it is of course simply my subjective opinion):

  • It is a modern reconstruction. The castle that you see today is not the original castle that was built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi. The original castle was destroyed in a fire in the 18th century, and the current castle was built in the early 20th century.

  • the interior of the castle is not very impressive. The castle houses a museum that exhibits artifacts and information about the castle's history, but the museum is small and not very well-curated, especially considering that it is extremely crowded.

*Castle entry fee - 600 JPY
