Tottori Castle Ruins
Castle ruins overlooking Tottori city, also known for its beautiful cherry blossoms.
The site of 'Tottori Castle,' built during the Sengoku period by utilizing the steep terrain of Mt. Kyushozan. During the Edo period, the foothills were developed as the political center of the Tottori Domain. Today, remnants such as stone walls and the base of the main keep remain, and the site has been designated as a national historic site. In 2006, a restoration plan was devised to revert to its appearance in the Edo period, and by 2021, the main entrance, Giboshi Bridge (Otemon Bridge), and the front gate of Nakanogomon-omotemon (Otemon Gate) were restored. Further restoration of buildings at the foot of the mountain is planned, drawing significant interest from history and castle enthusiasts.
The ruins are now part of 'Kyusho Park,' a popular scenic spot offering sweeping views of Tottori cityscape and Tottori Sand Dunes. The park is also one of the region's famous cherry blossom spots, where approximately 240 Somei Yoshino cherry trees bloom in the spring. The harmony between the castle's stone walls and the cherry blossoms is beautiful, with illumination during the blooming season and bustling with food stalls. It is also famous as a spot for autumn leaves, where one can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery against the backdrop of Mt. Kyushozan.
