This was a great day hike out in the far reaches of Saitama Prefecture. Hanazono Castle is one that I've wanted to visit for a long time but was somewhat hesitant due to a lack of information. After all it was a fantastic ruin to visit and highly recommended for any castle fans. I can't believe it took me so long to visit. The day was rounded out by a walk to the nearby defensive satellite castle Hanazono Mitake Castle and then on to Kanao Yogaisan Castle farther down the valley.
