Historical site of Tottori

Oct 2018 • Solo

This ruin was once a mountain castle built on Kyushozan mountain (久松山) in 16th century,. It is a National Historic site. It was a stage of infamous 'Starving to Submission', siege by Toyotomi Hideyoshi who cut off all the supplies to the castle. Nice hike up to the mountain and beautiful sight from the top.

Fun Hike

Nov 2019 • Solo

The ruins are alright. There is not much information regarding what was once there. The park is pretty though. And there is a nice hike to the top of the hill with great 360 degree views. There was also an old abandoned schoolroom at the top.

visit when you have the time

Oct 2019

Castle ruins means it is the remaining, and I walked from my hotel to this place, and since it was a rainy day, I could not see much. But during a clear day, I think there is more to see from the castle location towards the city, rather than the castle ruin itself.

It is indeed a ruin

Apr 2019 • Solo

The ruin is indeed a ruin and I have difficulty imagining how the castle used to look like. There is nothing much to see except for few walls remain.

If you are visiting during spring / Sakura season, then it may be worth visiting.

Partly rebuilt castle ruins

Aug 2019

Although it can easily be reached by local bus I decided to walk to this location. It took about 30 minutes but proved to be a very uninteresting walk. The castle ruins are partly rebuilt which at some spots can be clearly seen. I even got the impression that work is still underway. Nevertheless it was a pleasant area to walk in. What perhaps was the most interesting from this higher location were the great views over Tottori.

Late afternoon stroll from Tottori station

May 2019 • Solo

We can access this place by around 20 minutes of walking from Tottori station. There is not much to see about the castle ruins, but we can see Tottori and Jinpu-kaku Hall from the top of the castle.

Relaxing walk

Nov 2017 • Couples

Not much to see, just the walls, moats and a gate remain. We walked to the top to see the view of Tottori city.

Nothing much to see only walking around

Nov 2017 • Couples

Location is convenience to visit by the green bus with only 100 yen fare, few stations before sand dune.

As it is said, ruins, hence what you will see is the historical remains of the castle. The castle ruins is up on the hill where you can have a nice bird eyes view of the city down below. Nothing much but very nice and serene place to loitering around and learn about its history in the past.

Historic castle and battle site

Dec 2016 • Couples

The remains of the moat and castle walls are worth seeing. There is a path up the hill to the castle remains on the top with a wonderful 360 view.

Good excuse to hike around mountainside

Feb 2016 • Solo

Lovely winter day and this was fun to explore after museums closed at 5pm. Lots of construction now. Good views of Tottori city once you get to the top. Watch out for bears! So the signs warn...
