Imabari Castle

A unique castle where black sea bream and puffer fish swim in the moat. It was a famous castle that was supervised by Takatora Todo and whose construction was supervised by Kanpei Watanabe. I also enjoyed the many exhibits inside the venue. The view from the castle tower is also good.

One of the better reconstructed castles in Japan. Looks amazing from the outside when the light at dusk catches it correctly. Museum inside is fairly good and offers good views of the surrounding area especially around dusk.

Must-visit place in Imabari. The castle is huge, gorgeous, and you get to go to the top of the main "tower". There's a student discount for the tickets to the tower, but no pics are allowed inside, only at the top observation deck.

Well-preserved and charming castle in the centre of the town. Inside the main compound, one can go up into the keep and visit a nearby shrine. This castle has one of only a few seawater moats in all Japan, and many species of fish can be seen in the waters. Worth dropping in if nearby.

It’s worthy to pay a visit. I took bus for Imabari station and got off right in front of castle. The castle was defending pirates to protect people in the region.
