Zenshoji Fort

Of all the forts on this trip, Zenshoji Fort was probably the most interesting. The park is well defined with good views. It is roughly along the same hillside or ridge as Narumi Castle and may be the closest fort to the former castle. You can easily see why it was chosen as a location for a fort.
