Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: The complex spans over 120,000 square meters with defensive structures including stone walls and moats. Visitors can explore restored wooden turrets that showcase traditional carpentry techniques without using nails.
Punti salienti: Its distinct white walls are treated with a mud plaster that helps resist fire and rain damage, an ancient method still preserved today. The castle grounds include the unique "Gyokusen'inmaru" garden featuring a pond with a rare koi species symbolizing good fortune.
Consigli da insider
- Wear comfortable shoes for walking on uneven stone paths.
- Head to the Gyokusen'inmaru garden for the best photo opportunities at sunset.
- Skip weekends if you prefer a quieter experience as it tends to get crowded.
- Bring a hat and water in summer as little shade is available on the outer grounds.
