Tsuyama Castle (Kakuzan Park)

Overview

Explore Tsuyama Castle, also known as Kakuzan Park, a historic site originally built by Mori Tadamasa, brother of Mori Ranmaru. Though the castle structures were dismantled during the Meiji Restoration, the impressive 45-meter stone walls remain. The Bitchu Yagura turret has been reconstructed and is open to the public. Famous as one of western Japan's top cherry blossom spots, the park offers stunning views and a symbolic glimpse into Tsuyama's past. Located a 15-minute walk from Tsuyama Station, it's a must-visit for history buffs and nature lovers, especially during the spring cherry blossom festival.
