[Hyogo Prefecture] Explore the history of Himeji Castle, one of Japan's 100 most famous castles 🏯

[Tourist Spots] Himeji Castle was Japan's first World Heritage Site. It is called Shirasagi Castle because of its graceful appearance, resembling a egret spreading its wings. The castle is very large, but it takes a long distance to get there, so we recommend that you allow yourself plenty of time for sightseeing. Shirasagi Castle, which has just completed its major repairs during the Heisei period, is truly pure white!! Access About 20 minutes on foot from JR Sanyo Himeji Station Information current as of March 2022. #Breathtaking views #Historical sites #Tourism support #Japan's 100 famous castles #Castle tour #Shrines and temples #Shirasagi Castle #Himeji Castle #World Heritage Site #Exploring history #World Heritage Site
