Kyoto Prefecture | Forest of Kyoto Akechi Mitsuhide's Residence, Fukuchiyama Castle

Fukuchiyama Castle was originally 'Yokoyama Castle', the stronghold of the local Yokoyama clan. Akechi Mitsuhide, who subdued Tanba, gathered the elite of castle construction at the time and rebuilt it as 'Fukuchiyama Castle'. Within Fukuchiyama Castle, there were structures such as a three-story four-floor tower and the vast outer citadel of Ninomaru. However, after the abolition of the feudal domains in the fourth year of Meiji (1871), the buildings were demolished one after another, leaving only the stone walls from the tower to the main citadel, the well known as 'Toyoiwa no Ido', and the copper gate sentry post, etc. The current tower took three years to rebuild and was completed in Showa 61 (1986), with the interior serving as the Fukuchiyama City Folk Museum. In addition, there is the Fukuchiyama City Sato Taisho Memorial Art Museum in a corner of the park, mainly displaying works by the late master of Japanese painting—Sato Taisho. Address: Go, Fukuchiyama City, Kyoto Prefecture Transportation: Get off at 'Fukuchiyama Station' on the JR Sanin Line or the KTR Miyafuku Line, and it's a 15-minute walk

Lovely stay at Ubuya in Kawaguchiko

Nothing beats having a private onsen with a view of Mt Fuji in your own room! Our stay also included a kaiseki dinner and breakfast, which were pretty good too. Location is slightly difficult to access, though you can book a shuttle bus with the hotel to and from Kawaguchiko Station.
