The castle is only three floors and the view is limited.
The museum is the main attraction and it’s bigger.
The gardens are cute.
The words are all in japanese, but is possible to have an audio guide in english (500¥ as a deposit)
Entrance fee: 200¥
This is a castle located in Gyoda, made famous by the drama 'Rikuoh.' While the castle itself is small, visiting the museum where you can learn about the local history, and then seeing the castle, I believe provides a deeply enriching experience.
Another little treasure in Saitama. Not all of the complex is original and most has been rebuilt. The grounds are well kept with many sitting areas to enjoy the views. To enjoy the castle grounds is free but the on site museum building costs ¥200 to enter.
It was closed when I arrived, so couldn't go inside. Finally can only see from the outside. This castle was built on a very large land. The Castle building is still there, standing strong and strong.
