Himeji Castle ・姫路城



About two days ago, I took another adventure and I went to Himeji Castle. Himeji Castle is probably one of the castles in Japan that were not affected by World War II. It's definitely been kept in tact. To enter the tour of the castle, you must take off your shoes. This certainly helps to preserve the life of the castle.
In certain places, sakura (cherry blossom trees) are in full bloom. You can see everyone doing flower viewing or hanami ・はなみ・花見. During hanami people usually gather around the sakura trees and have a picnic.
