National Treasure Inuyama Castle and Castle Town

Built in 1537, National Treasure Inuyama Castle features Japan's oldest existing wooden castle keep. From the top floor of the keep, perched on a small hill along the Kiso River, you can enjoy panoramic views of the majestic Kiso River and the Nobi Plain. The castle town is lined with cafes and shops housed in traditional machiya townhouses, making it popular for food hopping. Charming local specialties include gohei mochi, dengaku, and koi-komachi dango. This famous castle can be enjoyed throughout the four seasons, with cherry blossoms in spring and autumn foliage in fall.
