Constructed in the early 17th century by the feudal lord Date Hidemune, the castle is perched on a hill, offering panoramic views of the surrounding city and Uwajima Bay. The structure is renowned for its traditional Japanese architectural design and well-preserved wooden interiors. Visitors can explore the various levels of the keep and enjoy the serene atmosphere of the castle grounds, which include lush gardens and ancient stone walls.
