Nightlife Experience

Very beautiful castle, especially with cherry blossom trees in full bloom

Matsumoto Castle was built during the Warring States Period in the 1500s as a residence for military commanders. The exterior is a five-story building and the interior is a six-story building. There are only two such architectural styles in Japan, Matsumoto Castle and Himeji Castle. The black lacquered outer wall is also very beautiful and is a precious national treasure of Japan.

A must-visit to this famous city in Nagano. You will be amazed by the craftsmanship of the city. You can buy a ticket to enter the city for a panoramic view. There are 6 floors in total. You need to be careful when going up to each floor, it is a bit sloped and a bit narrow!

#Autumn visit to Matsumoto Castle

Matsumoto Castle is located in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, Japan. Matsumoto Castle was built in 1504 and is the oldest five-story, six-story national treasure castle in Japan. It is currently open to the public, and you can climb the highest castle tower to overlook Matsumoto City and the snow-capped mountains in the distance.
There are many maple trees and cherry trees planted in Matsumoto Castle, which is also a good place for people to enjoy red leaves and cherry blossoms. In early November, in the late autumn season, I drove to Matsumoto Castle. The maple leaves in Matsumoto Castle are already red, and together with the golden ginkgo leaves and the blue sky, they decorate Matsumoto Castle, which is amazing.

Because there is no hotel scheduled to visit, living in Matsumoto, Matsumoto in the ghost festival period is really very beautiful. Lanterns hung all over the path. It&#39;s just that it&#39;s not a good taxi ride and it takes a long walk.
