๐Ÿฏ Matsuyama Castle Tower โ€“ Guide to viewing points in the city

#JapanGuide ๐Ÿ“ 1. Viewing Location โ€ข Top floor of the castle tower (3rd floor): This is the best place to take in Matsuyama Castle, the Seto Inland Sea, and the Ishizuchi Mountains in the distance at a glance ๏ฟผ ๏ฟผ. โ€ข Honmaru Square and Soso Yagura (watchtower): This is a space where you can enjoy an open panorama without having to enter the castle tower. โธป โ›ฉ๏ธ 2. Main Viewing Directions โ€ข West: Blue Seto Inland Sea โ€ข Southโ€“Southeast: Distant Ishizuchi Mountains โ€ข Northโ€“Northeast: Cityscape and surrounding low-lying forests ๏ฟผ ๏ฟผ ๏ฟผ. When looking through the window, nature flows naturally between the buildings of the city, and on clear days, you can see the tranquil Seto Inland Sea clearly. โธป ๐ŸŒ„ 3. The charm of day and night views โ€ข Day: Clear and refreshing scenery where the city and the sea are in harmony. โ€ข Night opening hours: During the cherry blossom festival every spring and in summer, the castle tower and the city night view shine together until 9 p.m. ๏ฟผ. โ€ข Daytime night view schedule: The castle tower and Honmaru Square are open at night, giving a different feeling than during the day. โธป ๐Ÿƒโ™€๏ธ 4. Access route โ€ข Take the ropeway (3 minutes) or chairlift (6 minutes) to Station 8, get off at Honmaru Square, and it takes about 10 minutes to reach the castle. โ€ข You can also walk. You can enjoy the fun of the journey by walking along the walking path and stone steps for 15 to 30 minutes. Matsuyama Castle's castle tower is a place where you can enjoy a 360ยฐ panorama of the city, the sea, and the mountains in different atmospheres during the day and night. From the experience of walking up after the ropeway or lift, to the scent of the trees and the stone walls inside the old castle, and the view of the Seto Inland Sea and the city from the top floor window. The feeling is especially deep during the spring cherry blossom light-up season or on a clear fall or winter morning.
