The Himeji Literature Museum was established to commemorate nine writers and philosophers born in Himeji. It is located in the northwest of Himeji Castle, hidden in a residential area, and was designed and constructed by the famous Japanese architect Tadao Ando. The Literature Hall is divided into three parts: South Hall, North Hall and Wangjing Pavilion. In the south hall, there is a video exhibition room with 9 150-inch large screens, as well as the Sima Ryotaro Memorial Room and the library. In the North Building, there is a literati exhibition room exhibiting the Harima culture at the end of the Shogunate period. In addition, there is the Wangjing Pavilion designed in the form of the Taisho period, which houses a Japanese room and a tea house. The Wangjing Pavilion can overlook the surrounding scenery.

I can see the various parts like the castle tower and not feel too much pressure during the waiting period. There is a spacious open space in front of the castle where you can walk like a picnic so it also has a park-like element where you can spend the day.
It is a building that feels good about Tadao Ando's exposed concrete style. The atmosphere is really good. I can see Himeji Castle in the distance.
In modern society, a lot of architects are really beautiful
It is about 1 km walk from Himeji City to Himeji Literature Museum. You can enjoy the view of Himeji Street along the way. The Himeji Literature Museum is on a hillside. The rooftop of the Himeji Museum can overlook the Egret Castle or the Himeji City.
Hijiji City is really beautiful and the place is small, you can see all the scenery in your eyes in the city!
