Muza-chan's Gate to Japan

Ozu Castle

Thu, May 12, 2016, by Muza-chan
The main tower of the Ōzu castle was reconstructed only 12 years ago, but it was rebuilt by strictly using traditional construction methods and materials, for both the interior and the exterior. The main tower is also connected to two original yagura turrets surviving since the beginning of the Edo period.

The overall effect of the traditional materials is exceptional, and the surroundings are truly beautiful, so I wholeheartedly recommend Ōzu as one of the must visit Japanese castles.
