Kamegajo Park

【A hidden historical vantage point backed by a famous peak】 'Kamega Castle Park' where stone walls and cherry blossoms resonate

'Kamega Castle Park', located on the northern side of Lake Inawashiro, is the site of the residence of the Inawashiro clan that once ruled this area. Although it lacks a flashy main keep, it exudes a genuine sense of weight that has survived the turbulent waves of history. Among the sightseeing spots in Inawashiro, it is a top hidden gem where you can escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy 'tranquility' and 'spectacular views' all to yourself.

■ The moss-covered stone walls and empty moats speak of memories from the Warring States period

The biggest highlight is the moss-covered stone walls and the massive empty moats that still stand proudly within the park.

• Mysterious attraction: The ruins that tell the story of its impregnable fortress status present a heavy presence that captivates not only hardcore history fans.
• Rich emotional time: The undulating terrain unique to castle ruins changes the scenery with every step, allowing you to experience a sense of overlapping with the landscapes that the samurai of that time would have gazed upon.

■ The 'frame' that captures the majestic figure of Mount Bandai most beautifully

The main reason this park is loved is its overwhelming location with Mount Bandai as the backdrop.

• Three-color contrast: In spring, about 500 cherry blossoms bloom, creating an artistic landscape woven with 'the blue of remaining snow', 'the gray of stone walls', and 'the pink of cherry blossoms'.
• A resting place for the four seasons: With stone walls adorned in autumn foliage and a fantastical appearance submerged in winter snow, it is the perfect 'resting place for the heart' where you can quietly enjoy the changing seasons while avoiding crowds.
