Explore the historic Obama Castle Ruins, originally built in 1601 by Takatsugu Kyogoku and later the residence of Tadakatsu Sakai in 1633. Though only stone walls remain today, the site offers a glimpse into the past, with Obama Shrine dedicated to the Sakai clan located in the former main enclosure. The ruins are a 15-minute walk from Obama Station, or a short bus ride followed by a 5-minute walk from the "Unohama" bus stop. Visit to experience a piece of local history and enjoy the serene atmosphere.
