The castle tower, which has an unequal pentagonal shape, is rare nationwide.
The castle tower, which is a symbol of Okayama city, is also known as “Ujo (Crow Castle)” due to its black board-clad exterior.
From the top floor, you can overlook the Asahikawa River, Okayama Korakuen, and the city area.
