Tour description

Himeji Castle is a national treasure and a World Heritage Site. It is one of the 12 original castles remaining in Japan and attracts many tourists from around the world every year, especially in spring and autumn to enjoy the cherry blossoms and the colorful leaves.
Not only is it very beautiful and wonderful, but you can also learn about wooden architecture, the history of Japan, Japanese culture, or defense and attack strategies.
Since there aren't many objects inside, it is very useful to visit with a guide to understand it well.
If you are interested in a Japanese garden, you can visit the Kokoen Garden after the tour.
The tour starts at the Otemon Gate or near the Sakuramon Bridge.

You need to purchase a ticket for the Castle
*There is a discounted ticket if you go to the Kokoen Garden. Visit the castle's website for details.

2500 JPY (adults),

0 JPY (free, for children 18 years or younger)

I look forward to welcoming and accompanying you with pleasure!
