It is the highest castle among the Japanese mountainous castles of 717m above sea level.

It is really rare that one family possessed such a castle for 700 years since the Middle Ages

which was built as a firm mountainous castle by using the steep topography

of pitch difference 180 meters skillfully.

Only a stone wall is left, but the structure of the stone wall is really wonderful.

Because there is much fog, to see the castle eclipsed by fog is fun.
