191028 Hirosaki Castle and Park

We were too early for autumn leaves. So we thought we can still enjoy the night illumination as advertised. We took the 100 yen bus and it took less than 30mins to reach Hirosaki Castle Park from Hirosaki Station. We reach there about 4pm and realised that garden opening hours will be closing soon so as the castle. In a rush, we bought the castle ticket. 370yen per person and should not have done so.

A relatively small place. 

Chrysanthemum and autumn foliage festival going on. 

Sunset from Hirosaki Castle Ground. Beautiful Mt Iwaki.

Paid 370 yen per person to climb up this castle. Very small castle compared to those we visited elsewhere.

This is the place with the best lights and that all for night illumination. 

Overall, it is a very small castle park. If we are in Hirosaki, it is nice to visit. Otherwise, we can leave it out. Won't loose much.
