[Kyoto] The land ruled by Akechi Mitsuhide! Introducing Fukuchiyama Castle

Fukuchiyama Castle, located in Fukuchiyama City, Kyoto Prefecture, is said to have been built by Akechi Mitsuhide, who was cast into the spotlight in the 2020 taiga drama "Kirin ga Kuru," as his base in Tamba. Although the castle tower is no longer surviving, the quaint castle tower is a symbol of Fukuchiyama, and in 2017 it was selected as one of Japan's Top 100 Castles. Although Akechi Mitsuhide is generally thought of as a traitor, he is beloved by the citizens of Fukuchiyama for his efforts in developing the castle town and flood control works. 📌Fukuchiyama Castle🏯 📌5 Uchiki, Fukuchiyama City, Kyoto Prefecture, 620-0035 📌About 15 minutes walk from JR/Kyoto Tango Railway "Fukuchiyama Station" 📌Famous rating★★★☆☆ #Kyoto sightseeing #777 #Kyoto trip #Fukuchiyama city #Fukuchiyama castle #Fukuchiyama #Castle tour #Akechi Mitsuhide
