#Get a discount without relying on luck 🏯 #Ueda Castle Ueda Castle Ruins Park in Ueda City, full of samurai history. But on the day I went, I didn't see any samurai. This is one of the lesser-known tourist attractions in Nagano Prefecture. But since we've been here, I'd like to recommend it. A must-see tourist attraction in Ueda City is #Ueda Castle Park (上田城跡公園 Ueda Jо̄seki Kо̄en), which is home to Ueda Castle (上田城 Ueda-jо̄), one of the 100 most famous castles in Japan. Especially during cherry blossom season🌸, looking at the row of cherry trees when the flowers bloom, it must be very beautiful. Inside the castle grounds, there is ⛩️ #Sanada Shrine (眞田神社 Sanada Jinja) located in the Ueda Castle Park area and is a shrine that worships the former owner of Ueda Castle. This place is very beautiful for taking pictures. #Directions Walk from JR Ueda Station for about 850 meters, walk for about 10 minutes. When I went there was no entrance fee to the castle.

Ueda Castle is about a 15-minute walk from Ueda Station. As it is a castle ruin, it no longer has a castle tower, but you can still feel the atmosphere and remnants of the time, such as the gate and the shrine inside the castle. There is also an Ario nearby, so you can buy some drinks and food and have a picnic in the park inside the castle.
