Uwajima, Ehime Prefecture


Uwajima Castle, Uwajima, Ehime Prefecture, Japan - 12th February 2007

It was a fairly early start this morning so we could get as much sightseeing done as possible before heading back up to Matsuyama and boarding the ferry back to Hiroshima. Unlike Matsue Castle in Shimane Prefecture the castle isn't surrounded by a moat but is located high up on the top of the hill in the city centre. Walking up some steep steps will get you up there quickly if you are fit! The castle itself is rather small but the inside is very accomodating. The view from the castle itself is spectacular and you can get your bearings of Uwajima quickly.
