Visit Notes
Very little to see here, even the remains are a bit of a stretch for the imagination but it's nice that it has been preserved as a park. It was a quick bus ride from Nagareyama Otakanomori Sta. on the way home from Moriya Castle but be careful. There are few busses on weekends. I ended up walking back afterwards because the next bus was too long to wait.
