  • Inatsuke Castle Remains
    Inatsuki Castle Ruins is the ruined castle ruins created by Ota Dokan, a 15th century warlord at the altitude of 21 m above sea level. Ota Dokan is known for building Edo castle. His statue is also here and it is open to enter by the public on the 26th of every month after July 26th, the date of his death. From the back of the precincts you will find a graveyard where you can enjoy the scenery that makes you feel the contrast between old graves and modern buildings.
  • Akabane Ichibangai Shopping Street is occupied by several dozen pubs and izakayas, many of which are open at noon. It’s not uncommon to see elderly men enjoying a mid-afternoon cup of sake at their local izakaya. Join them and experience a slice of Japan that harks back to a time when the country was much more blue-collar and down-to-earth.
