Zeze Castle Ruins - 本丸町 Otsu

It is a castle ruins park. The castle has been demolished since the Meiji era and remains almost untouched. Ishigaki piled up in the park is not real. There is a gate that was relocated to a nearby temple. The streets of Zeze had a good atmosphere with old private houses remaining.

There is an explanation board along the shore road. When I walked on 3/6, one cherry tree was blooming at the main circle trace (^-^ ゞ A blissful moment immersed in historical romance while watching the Asahi and Lake Biwa ('-' *) ♪ There are almost no remains left at Ked, the Mizuki ruins where you can take a leisurely walk

The ruins of Zensho Castle. The ruins of Heijo, where there is no castle tower. In spring, the cherry blossoms are good and crowded with people. In summer, you can also look at Lake Biwa from the shaded bench. Walk about 5 minutes from the parking lot. It's a little hot in the summer, because it's under the scorching sun.

There is a mock gate. It seems that there aren't many remains ... ⁉️ Ishigaki ⁉️ It looks like a good walk course for the neighbors ❗

There are also light acupoints (I haven't seen anyone using it because it's dirty). There are connecting roads from north to south, so many people are walking or jogging. On holidays, there are overwhelmingly many anglers, and there are toilets and vending machines (and there are supermarkets, McDonald's, and udon restaurants nearby), so you can spend some time conveniently. There is also a fireworks display near the end of August, and it is good to sit comfortably while cooling in the breeze along the surrounding Lake Biwa. (Depending on the year, there may be a fishy smell such as algae, but if you leave it, there is no problem) 2018 will be held on August 25th Zeze Park Fireworks 2018 You can search by

There is Zeze Castle に in the current Zeze Park. In 1601, Ieyasu Tokugawa is planned and built by Takatora Todo. It is said that the bombardment from Otsu Castle's Mt. It is said that those who set the Kara Bridge in Seta were conquered by the world and were set up as a restraint on the Tokaido. The castle owner is Toshikazu Toda and Yasutoshi Honda. The family crest of the Honda family is used for the tiles of the gate that remain with the standing aoi. It was built as the No. 1 contractor of the Edo Shogunate. It is said that because of the lake shore, it was suffering from the erosion of waves and was pressing down on finances. Otsu Castle has income such as deputy officers and transportation expenses on the lake, so it is a budget that can afford, but Zenze Castle is said to have been tense because it is only yearly rice. The stone walls of Zeze Castle ? use Olympic towers and tombstones, so the tombstones that came out during the excavation are caught and organized. A tombstone from Sakamoto Castle goes to Otsu Castle and is known to be used up to Zeze Castle. It seems that there is a lack of stones when using tombstones, but recently it is said that they are used as castle guards. It flows around the Sagamigawa Zeze Castle, but it seems to have been used as an outer moat. On the river, there is a trace of a moat where the place is raised. Until recently, there is a turret trace that rejects enemies attacking from Tokaido. At the residence of Mr. Muramatsu, the elder, when entering the Nagaya Gate, there is still a part of Odaiba where the artillery can be installed and a part of the surrounding basement. Is there a lot of artillery batteries, probably a trauma of artillery battle at Otsu Castle? Zeze Castle has its gates relocated to nearby shrines and temples. The feature is that there are many Komaimon. There were also a pharmacy gate and a Nagaya gate. Some of the front gates of Wada Shrine have been relocated to the gates of Zezedo's clan school, Shogi-do. It is said that the Ginkgo tree at the precinct was 600 years old, and that Ishida Mitsunari was tied to this tree on the way to Kyoto after the battle of Sekigahara. It is said that the origin of the name of the Zeze comes from the kitchen where the seafood was provided to the Emperor of the Heian period. There is also a pottery for Zeze-yaki. It was used for souvenirs. In the nearby Gotenhama, the place where the palace was located was located. The site of the retirement of the Honda family and the garden were left behind. Until recently, the trees had been completely covered, but now they are cut and can be seen.

It's a small castle, but in the old days it looked like it was floating on Lake Biwa, and it was spectacular.

I received the castle stamp at the nearby Chamber of Commerce. On the net, it was only on weekdays, but Only 1000-1500 on the 3rd Sunday, so don't make a mistake.
