[Kokura] Kokura Castle is not just a castle tower! Introducing a hidden gem

Kokura Castle is famous for its castle tower, but there is actually a lot to see around it!

Cannons that evoke history, a tasteful lighthouse,
and a shrine that quietly stands there and exudes power.

Walking around surrounded by fresh greenery,
I felt like I was traveling through time.
Not only did it have a touristy feel, but the calm atmosphere
was very comfortable.
I'm sure it would be beautiful during cherry blossom season.

A perfect spot for a leisurely stroll in the city.
I was completely soothed.
And it's amazing that it's free!

And there are also many experiences inside the castle tower, so you can enjoy it as well.
