Our gracious hosts, Hiroko and her husband Tetsunori-san
This chamber of the castle was specifically for the lord and is closed off to the public. However, the management totally hooked us up and let us in for a picture. The birdcage-like apparatus that you see before us is actually for holding incense and clothes would be draped over it to imbue them with the fragrance. Rad!
Here is the magnificent castle itself.
Here are some sculptures from the garden. The peaceful monk and the stern warrior. The dichotomy!
