The historical charm of Hikone Castle 🏯✨

Hikone Castle is located in Shiga Prefecture. It is one of the few remaining castle towers in Japan and has important historical value. Built in the 17th century, the castle is famous for its magnificent architecture and beautiful gardens and is a designated historic site of Japan. The castle tower is well preserved. Walking into it, you can feel the atmosphere of the former samurai and appreciate the exquisite decorations and historical relics inside the castle. From the height of the castle tower, you can overlook the entire city of Hikone and the surrounding natural scenery, with lakes and mountains interweaving into a beautiful picture. Hikone Castle is not only a castle, but also a window to understand Japan's Warring States history. Visitors can leisurely stroll inside and outside the castle, enjoy this ancient cultural heritage, and experience the depth and charm of history. Useful information: Hikone Castle is about a 15-minute walk from Hikone Station and has convenient transportation. The entrance fee is about 600 yen. It is recommended to check the opening hours in advance, respect the regulations within the castle, and enjoy this historical journey. #MarchGoodPlaces2025

If you also want to see cherry blossoms, you can avoid the crowds and come here to Kyoto. Most of the people there are local Japanese, and there are not many tourists, which is very happy. However, when you arrive here at noon and have already bought the tickets, you still have to queue for the castle tower! There weren't many cars open when we arrived on 3/29, but now there should be a lot. It's great that there are very few tourists, most of them are Japanese. It's the right place to avoid the crowds! Love it! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Yanyan has his working hours and will meet everyone here after three o'clock in the afternoon. If you want to take pictures, it is recommended to go to Mengjingcheng Street in the morning and come back around two or three in the afternoon!
