Himeji Castle
⚠️For Himeji Castle, it's recommended to purchase the combined ticket for the Tianshouge (Main Tower) + Kochikoen Garden, 🌸🌺which costs 1050 yen, just 50 yen more than the ticket for the Tianshouge alone. With this ticket, you can not only stroll around Kochikoen Garden (p1) but also visit the Ryusuiken Tea House inside the garden 🌸🌺( Beware: Google Maps may mislead; you can only enter from within Kochikoen). Here, you can enjoy delicious food while taking in the beautiful scenery. 🌸🌺 It's recommended to visit either right when it opens at 11am or after the meal rush to avoid long queues and to have a chance to sit by the window . Highly recommended dishes include the 2680 yen grilled domestic beef set and the 2300 yen eel + noodle set—both delicious and visually pleasing. 🌸🌺By the way, to visit the Tianshouge at Himeji Castle, you'll need to remove your shoes and carry them while climbing the stairs. 🌸🌺 In winter, the floor can be quite cold. 🌸🌺 #Kobe
