Explore the historic Miharu Castle Ruins, once home to the Tamura clan and other feudal lords since 1504. Although the castle was dismantled after the Meiji Restoration, the site now serves as Shiroyama Park, a peaceful retreat offering scenic views of Miharu. Discover remnants of the castle's past, including stone foundations and earthworks, while enjoying the natural beauty of the park. The castle is a 10-minute drive from Miharu Station. Don't miss the chance to see the stone monument commemorating Princess Ai, the wife of Date Masamune, who was born here. Visit during spring to witness the stunning cherry blossoms, or in early summer to see the beautiful hydrangeas along the path to the summit.
