Beautiful castle and one of few that’s in its original state. The best seasons to visit are during autumn or cherry blossom season!

Beautiful grounds! Recommend visiting the garden if you have time. Up to the castle, lots and lots of steps so be ready.

Small castle surrounded by beautiful cherry forest and gardens. In blooming time it is really amazing. Queue for museum is very long thought so just skip it.

やはり ひこにゃん。そして2017年の大河ドラマ後半には舞台のひとつになるであろう部分で注目は高まりそう。石田三成の佐和山城跡地など見所も豊富かと思う

現存十二天守、国宝四城どちらにもノミネートされている貴重なお城。廃城とされた佐和山城や大津城の遺構がこの彦根城に組み込まれている。
