The garden surrounding Matsumoto Castle is called Ninomaru Garden
Matsumoto Castle, known as the "Crow Castle" for its striking black exterior, captivated me with its dramatic color and imposing beauty. The castle's design is truly remarkable, as it is built entirely of wood without the use of nails, a technique that highlights the skill and craftsmanship of its builders. Set against the serene backdrop of the Japanese Alps, the surrounding park adds to the castle’s allure, with its peaceful ponds and vibrant seasonal blooms. The combination of the castle's dark, bold presence and the tranquil park makes it an unforgettable sight.
