À propos de ce lieu: Château de Matsumoto
Le Château de Matsumoto est Trésor national et l'un des 12 châteaux originaux du Japon. Ses murs noirs lui ont valu le surnom de « Château du Corbeau ». Les crêtes blanches des Alpes du Nord à l'arrière-plan et les douves miroir offrent une beauté quatre saisons.
Points forts
- Great Keep (National Treasure) — built 1593–94, the oldest of Japan's 12 surviving originals; its black walls earn the «Crow Castle» nickname
- Inner Moat and Uzumi Bridge — the vermilion bridge on the northwest side framing the keep; mid-April cherry blossoms are the canonical composition
- Northern Alps Borrowed Backdrop — the white ridges behind the keep, especially stunning paired with cherry blossoms in April
- Evening Illumination — year-round from sunset to 22:00; the blue hour against the black keep is striking
- Honmaru Garden — seasonal flowers (peonies, wisteria, lotus) within the castle tour route
