[Ibaraki, Mito Castle] Stroll through the historic ruins of the castle

Mito Castle flourished as the residence of the Mito Tokugawa family, and was known as the center of "Mitogaku" during the Edo period. 📖✨ Mitogaku was the source of the Sonno Joi ideology and had a major impact on the history of the late Edo period. 📜 The castle ruins are still home to the domain school "Kodokan," which was in use at the time, making it a must-see spot for history buffs! The restored Otemon Gate and Yakuimon Gate are also worth seeing. 👀 Why not take a leisurely stroll while feeling the history of Mito? #MitoCastle #Kodokan #Mitogaku #ExploringHistory #IbarakiTourism #CastleRuinsTour #0YenTripFebruary2025
