    Dahe Dynasty の Ancient Mountain City

    Original Text

    It was also introduced in Bra Tamori as a castle related to the legend of Momotaro, but in fact it is one of the ancient mountain castles that are said to have been widely built in western Japan to defend the country from Tang and Silla by the Yamato imperial court. In the 7-8 century It seems that it was abandoned and forgotten. I think it is magnificent and large for a castle built in the 7th century. The restored West Gate decoration feels uncomfortable without basis. You need to go through the sand river park of the relaxation of the sosha citizen and proceed on the narrow mountain road where the car cannot pass each other, ...

    I want you to go in the evening, but the scenery is good and there may be few oncoming cars.

    Original Text

    After visiting Kibitsu Shrine and Kibitsuhiko Shrine, I headed. I will go according to the car navigation system, but will an oncoming car come? I drove while throbbing. The parking lot is large and you can park for free. You can walk to the west gate in about 10. There is also an observatory on the way, so it is recommended to stop by before going.

    The snow was dancing on the mountain.

    Original Text

    It's a car from the enviable scenery of the Seto Inland Sea. For an hour, cold wind and snow are dancing on the ruins of the castle on the mountain. Who built this castle on such a mountain? strange.

    Walk around the castle and enjoy the historic sites

    Original Text

    You can walk around the outer circumference of the castle. Walk relatively slowly (while looking at the historic site) from the parking lot for about 2 time. The scenery is also beautiful. If the weather is nice, you can see Shikoku. Since there are only vending machines such as drinking water in the visitor center, it is recommended that you buy drinks in advance and then climb.
