This city is famous for its castle, which is one of the few originals that still remain, and considered to be the most beautiful in Japan.

It belongs to the list of UNESCO World Heritage List and it's definitely worth the visit. Apart from the main tower in the picture, the whole fortress was very interesting to walk around. There was even a Seppuku-Harakiri chamber!
