This updates brings 3 new castles and updates for 2 that were already on the site. See the below visit notes for details. I took advantage of the JR East Welcome Pass this fall to visit some castles in Fukushima and Miyagi. [[Koori Nishiyama Castle]]] and [[Iwakiri Castle]] are two of the more famous mountaintop castles in Tohoku. They are along the same train line so they were fairly easy to visit together. [[Tokoji Castle]] is a fortification at the base of the mountain where [[Iwakiri Castle]] is located. [[Miharu Castle]] is in the [[Next 100 Castles]] and nearby [[Ogoe Castle]] is in the town where I once taught English but I didn't know much about castles then. I think I put this train pass to good use to visit some important sites in Souther Tohoku. I hope they extend the campaign for this pass beyond February and into castle season again!
