Himeji Castle Day Tour 🇯🇵

From afar, the white and elegant city is particularly dazzling under the blue sky, and its graceful posture like a egret spreading its wings makes people want to take a few more glances. As you approach Otemon Gate, you will see winding city walls and stone steps rising layer by layer. Exploring further inside, you will feel as if you have stepped into a historical site from the Warring States Period. Walking along the winding passage to the castle tower, the details that were designed for defense in the past have now become the most interesting highlights of the visit. Climb to the top floor and you'll have a panoramic view of the entire city. The scenery where history and modernity meet is amazing. The city displays the history of city owners and construction from different generations, which is simple yet meaningful. The most impressive thing is that the wooden structure has been preserved intact after hundreds of years. You can smell the wood fragrance when walking in it, and the footsteps echo in the corridor, which is quiet and solemn. The whole city is not just a building, it is more like a three-dimensional history book, which leaves a memory in people's hearts as they walk around. 📌Tourism information collection｜Himeji Castle 🚉 Transportation (from Kobe) Take the JR Limited Express Train → Get off at Himeji Station From Himeji Station North Exit: Take the Shinki Bus and get off at Otemon-mae.
