Himeji castle Shogun slope

Sat, August 17, 2019, by Muza-chan

With a height of 47 meters and located on a hill at the center of the Himeji castle complex, the main keep (daitenshu) is towering over the entire area.

The last part of the slope that goes to the keep, named the “Shogun slope” (in the photo) is one of the most beautiful parts of the castle.
