Matsumoto Castle, one of Japan's oldest castles, is famous for its unique black exterior. Located in Matsumoto City for over 400 years, it houses a remarkable collection of weapons and armor from the Warring States Period. Despite never witnessing battle, it's a must-visit in Nagano Prefecture, especially during twilight hours for a peaceful experience. The sight of swans on the moat against the castle and the blueish-purple horizon is unforgettable.

【Matsumoto Castle】 松本城 - Matsumoto Castle Nagano Matsumoto Castle is the oldest national treasure castle in Japan among the existing five-story and six-story castle towers. In 1936 (Showa 11), the entire site was designated as a national treasure. Later, in 1952 (Showa 27)), five buildings, the castle tower, the Inuiko castle tower, the Wataru tower, the Tatsumi tower, and the Tsukimi tower, were designated as national treasures. Half of the body is illuminated by the setting sun, and the light and shadow form a wonderful harmony. Ducks swimming leisurely in the moat accentuate the enormity of the castle.

Went on a trip to Matsumoto during the Obon holiday. We arrived Friday and our first stop after checking in at our hotel was Matsumoto Castle. The statue in the first photo is of Banryu Shonin (播隆上人). Apparently he was a Buddhist monk and prominent mountaineer during the early 1800s. I thought it was interesting so I took a photo of it. Matsumoto Castle was really incredible. I think it's definitely one of the most beautiful castles in Japan. If I had a better camera, I would have been able to take some nicer photos, but I'm pretty pleased with the photos I took, despite having taken them from my smartphone. The inside of the castle was really awesome and I spent a lot of time looking at all of the different exhibits showing the weaponry used on the battlefield, etc. Most of the exhibits have English and Japanese too, which is nice if you don't speak Japanese but are interested in learning about the history of the castle. On Saturday we took a bus to Kamikochi. The bus to Kamokochi took about an hour longer than expected as there was a lot of people going there for the Obon holiday. The views were really incredible, and compared to the city of Matsumoto, the area was a nice cool temperature. One of the other bridges near Kappa Bridge (河童橋) was probably like 10 degrees cooler than the rest of the Kamikochi area too. We hiked from Taisho Pond (大正池) to Kappa Bridge in about an hour. It was pretty good exercise and totally flat, so pretty much anyone can enjoy the walking trails. There are a lot of scenic views along the trail from Taisho Pond to Kappa Bridge, and some of the views of the water were just magical. I wasn't able to capture just how beautiful the place is with my photos, but it's really gorgeous. Once we got closer to Kappa Bridge we started seeing a lot of monkeys walking around too, which was kind of neat. Apparently their population is increasing in the area because people keep feeding them, so make sure not to do that if you visit. On our last day in Matsumoto we decided to check out some other spots in town, and ended up visiting Nawate Street, a nice little shopping street with some cool shops and cafes. We got some ice cream and sat down by the river running through the town and relaxed for a bit. After that we headed up to Joyama Park (the last photo). The walk to the park was pretty long with how hot it was outside but the view from the top was pretty incredible. It was a nice way to end our trip. I think Matsumoto Castle and Kamikochi are definitely some of the best places to visit if you're sightseeing in Matsumoto, so definitely make some time to visit them.

It is a picture that reflects a mysterious charm that is different from the day. Matsumoto Castle, located in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, is an Edo period castle designated as a national treasure of Japan. Previously, it was called Fukashi Castle, but the Ogasawara clan became the castle owner and changed the name to "Matsumoto Castle". Matsumoto Castle, which is also a symbol of Matsumoto City, is full of attractions. The five castle towers are one of the features of Matsumoto Castle. The large castle tower on the 5th and 6th floors is divided into white plaster and black lacquer at the top and bottom of the castle walls, which is a rare structure at that time. In addition, many national treasures and important cultural properties such as coins and armor are on display, and are recommended for those who are interested in the history and culture of Japan. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom in the main maru and garden, and it is also popular with tourists as a famous place for cherry blossoms. You can enjoy about 300 cherry blossoms, and it is a cherry blossom viewing spot visited by many people. In addition, at night, a light-up event "Corridor of Light" is held, so you can fully enjoy the cherry blossoms at night. ◆Matsumoto Castle◆ 【Address】〒390-0873 Nagano Prefecture Matsumoto City Marunouchi 4-1 【Access】Train: Get off at Matsumoto Station on the JR Shinonoi Line and walk for about 20 minutes. 【Parking lot】Available (charged) For more information, please visit the official website.
