A historic garden colored by the seasons. Enjoy a quiet moment at Takada Castle Park🌸

A historical garden colored by the four seasons. Enjoy a quiet time at Takada Castle Park🌸 Takada Castle Park in Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture, is a historical park developed on the former castle site of Matsudaira Tadateru, the sixth son of Tokugawa Ieyasu. In spring, about 4,000 cherry trees bloom, and visitors from all over the country visit to see the cherry blossoms as one of the "Three Great Night Cherry Blossoms in Japan".🌸 In summer, the lotus flowers filling the outer moat are in full bloom, and you will be captivated by their beauty, which is said to be the best in the Orient.🌿 The park also has a restored three-story turret, a history museum, and an art museum, making it a space where culture and nature are in harmony.🏯 I visited on a solo trip, and was soothed by the quiet time that passed while walking through the tunnel of cherry blossoms. It is also perfect for a stroll with your partner. Admission is free, so it is also recommended as an "absolutely free trip". Why not spend a memorable trip in this park, which changes its appearance with each season?
