I took a stroll around Wakayama Castle.
Thanks to my friend in Osaka, they even drove me all the way from Osaka to visit Wakayama Castle and the grounds.
It was a shame that cherry blossom season 🌸 was already coming to an end.
Wakayama Prefecture, in Japan, is located on the Kii Peninsula.
It’s known for the Kumano Kodo, Mount Koya, Shirahama Onsen, and Wakayama Castle, and it’s a famous hot spring getaway.
It’s also only about a 1.5-hour drive from Osaka, which makes it perfect for a quick 1-2 day trip.
It was my first time visiting Wakayama, and I was surprised by how few people there were in the city!
Other than the area around the train station, everywhere else felt pretty quiet,
and there were very few tourists too.
I really didn’t expect that.
