Kanazawa Castle 02/11/2016 #3 Beautiful town with lovely gardens and spacious castle grounds.
Matsumoto Castle 07/11/2016 #4 Spectacular tenshu.
Hirosaki Castle 09/11/2016 #5 Main keep was detached and moved for repair. Vivid autumn leaves and an unexpected snowfall still made it unforgettable.

Inuyama Castle 11/11/2016 #7 Lovely castle in lovely town, nice views from the top of the tenshu.

Nijo Castle 08/11/2017 #16 Magnificent, but a shame it's so damned crowded!
Imabari Castle 09/11/2017 #17 Tenshu, some yagura and a tidal moat. What more could you want!
