Kakuzan Park is on the ruins of an ancient castle, Tsuyama Castle, which was built about 400 years ago. The castle’s approximately 10 m tall stone wall remains today, greeting visitors with a majestic view of overlapping stones even from a distance. The ruin has been selected as one of Japan’s top 100 castles and has earned a spot as one of Japan’s top 100 cherry blossom sites. The Tsuyama Cherry Blossom Festival held every year in early to mid April gives visitors the chance to experience the park’s 1,000 or so cherry trees. After sunset, looking down from atop the stone wall at the cherry trees illuminated below, visitors will be treated to an unimaginably beautiful view. The changing leaves in autumn also offer a worthy sight. Kakuzan Park is built on the ruins of an ancient castle, Tsuyama Castle, which was built about 400 years ago.

One of the best destination in Okayama Perfecture. This castle is best known for it’s beautiful cherry blossom trees. But in autumn it’s also offer a stunning red mapple and yellow ginko trees.

Perfect location for picnic, enjoy your time with family or friends. Also it’s up in the mountain, so you will also have a litle exercises.

From the top of the castle, you can see the Tsuyama city and feels a wind breeze.

The accomodation to get in this place is also very easy, you can just use Tsuyama train from Okayama Station, followed by a journey on foot about 15minutes to get in the entrance locket.

Overall, one of a must see place in Okayama durring...

If there were still castle tower, it would be more amazing castle but that was decomposed because of historical background. Even so, this fort looks amazing and also looks like maze ;) I guess some cosplayer will love here;P I forgot to take photo...

I haven’t seen Sakura here that I decided to estimate 4 stars . The castle is surrounded by tons of Sakura trees that I’m sure here will become super beautiful place in Spring. I look forward to visiting...

(castles visited 50+) The coolest thing about this castle is you can see it from much of the city and visa versa. Plenty of cities have castles buy this one, you can really see the castle mountain and the castle from most of the city. The castle park was really nice. At the time of this review, it seems they are still resorting various parts. If you look at my photos you can see the hotel from the castle and see the castle the hotel.

此度も城郭ファーストの視点で述べてみようと思う。 ・総合 ★★★☆☆ 石垣の規模、修復度、保存性や整備状況などから★3とした。 プラス要素は備中櫓復元と天守台周りの整備、景観にもある程度配慮されている点。城そのものの規模もかつては60もの櫓や門が林立していたことは城のレベルとしては高い。入場料310円(大人)は安いだろう。 マイナス要因は現存建造物が皆無であることや、樹木が多すぎて夏は石垣がほとんど城下から見えない。 ・保存性★★☆☆☆ 石垣の補修が断続的に継続されており、いつもどこかで工事をしている。ある程度補修しているため孕みも少ないが、一部樹木が石垣を犯しており、早急に対応が必要である。 天守を始め、櫓や門などは既に明治期に失われており、その威容は古写真や模型でしか偲ぶことができないが、城郭の主要部分の石垣が復元も含めほぼ完全な状態で残っていると言えよう。 ・復元性★★★☆☆ 20年ほど前に天守以外では城内最大級の櫓である備中櫓が木造復元されており、内部が公開されている。畳敷きで茶室や上段の間もあり、居住性を持たせた櫓は他城を見ても数は少ない。名前の由来や詳細解説は他に委ねるが現在唯一の城の建造物である。 天守は破風のない層塔型の5重5階地下1階の穴蔵を持つ構造で残っている天守台からも伺える。因みに現在穴蔵内にある石段は明治期に勝手に追加されたもので本来は木造の階段から内部に上がったようだ。残念がら資料不足から復元は難しいだろうが外観は写真である程度判明しているので、柱割りなど内部構造の資料があれば木造復元も可能性が出てくる。 ・景観性★★☆☆☆ この城もご多分に漏れず桜である。鶴山公園として今は桜の名所だが本来はこれほどなかったもので明治以降せっせと植えまくった結果、樹木だらけになってしまい、夏はせっかくの石垣がほとんど見えない。備中櫓にもかかってしまい、見えにくいのでせめて櫓周辺は伐採して欲しい。城は桜のためにあるのではない。 また、城下からもビルや電線が邪魔でベストショットは望みにくい。城の東側はある程度木を切ったようで、石垣が見えるようになっているのはプラスポイントだ。 過剰な看板表示や変な顕彰碑などもほとんど無く、これも評価できよう。天守のライトアップ用照明が樹木でうまくカモフラージュされているのも良い。もっと言えば地中に埋めてライト部が見えなければなお良かったであろう。
