Cherry blossoms at UNESCO World Heritage Himeji Castle

 

Cllick on the photos to enlarge the size. Photo source:1st photo from www.city.himeji.lg.jp, 2nd photo from sakura.yahoo.co.jp, 3rd photo from ovo.kyodo.co.jp  These photos show very famous Japanese castle called Himeji Castle ("Himeji Jo" in Japanese) which is registered as UNESCO World Heritage. This castle is pretty famous for its breathtaking beauty. During spring season especially at the time of cherry blossoms season, this castle is even more beautiful and so many tourists not only from Japan but also from all over the world visit this place for enjoying spring blooming over a beautiful view of traditional castle. 

Here is detailed explanation about this castle described in Wikipedia as follows: Himeji Castle (Himeji-Jo) is a hilltop Japanese castle complex located in Himeji, in Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan. The castle is regarded as the finest surviving example of prototypical Japanese castle architecture, comprising a network of 83 buildings with advanced defensive systems from the feudal period.[8] The castle is frequently known as Hakuro-jō ("WhiteEgret Castle") or Shirasagi-jō ("White Heron Castle") because of its brilliant white exterior and supposed resemblance to a bird taking flight. Himeji Castle dates to 1333, when Akamatsu Norimura built a fort on top of Himeyama hill

Himeji Castle is located in the city of Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture to where it takes about 3 and half hours by Shinkansen (bullet train) from Tokyo. If you have an opportunity to visit Japan, we recommend you to visit this castle during a spring season.
