Explore Hitoyoshi Castle Ruins Park, the former stronghold of the Sagara clan from 1198 until the Meiji Restoration. Known as "Senzuki Castle" due to a crescent moon-shaped stone found during renovations, this park offers scenic views of the Kumagawa River and Hitoyoshi City from the Ninomaru area. The park is famous for its cherry blossoms and illuminated views at night. Note that some areas are currently restricted due to heavy rain damage. Located a 20-minute walk from Hitoyoshi Station, the park features preserved stone walls and covers an area of 14 hectares.
