Bird's eye view of the ancient town from the castle

#Japan Attractions Hikone Castle Tower is the landmark of Hikone Castle. It is very convenient to take the JR railway line from Kyoto Station to Hikone Station, so you can depart at any time. The opening hours of Hikone Castle Tower are from 8:30am to 5pm, which is the opening time of the moat gate under the castle. There are three ticket entrances to the castle: Otemon Bridge, Omotemon Bridge, and Kuromon Bridge. It is worth noting that no matter which ticket entrance you go through, it is a long way to get to the castle tower. It takes about 30 minutes to walk from the castle tower on the top of the mountain to the main entrance ticket office. The last admission to the castle on the top of the mountain is 4:30pm, so it is recommended to enter before 2pm. The bird's eye view of Hikone Castle from the castle tower is really beautiful, it's worth it no matter how tiring it is! #Hikone Castle #castle #meditation #yoga #yoga retreat #vertebral arch fracture #isthmic arch fracture #sadhguru #castle tower #Hikone station #moat
