Explore the historic Tokushima Castle Ruins, conveniently located a 5-minute walk from Tokushima Station. Once the stronghold of the Hachisuka clan from 1585 until the Meiji Restoration, the site now serves as Tokushima Central Park. While the original castle structures are gone, impressive stone walls and foundations remain, offering a glimpse into its past. Don't miss the reconstructed Washi-no-Mon gate and the nearby Tokushima Castle Museum for a deeper understanding of the castle's history. The park is a well-maintained green space perfect for a stroll, with scenic views from the castle hill. Visit in the spring to enjoy the cherry blossoms.
