Marugame Castle

Home to one of Japan's original 12 surviving castle towers, Marugame Castle features the most stunning stone walls in Japan. The six-tiered 'stone wall staircase' climbing 60 meters above the city is a National Treasure. The small three-story keep offers views across the Seto Inland Sea.
