Hirosaki Castle

Hirosaki Castle is in Aomori Prefecture, Northern part of Japan.
This castle was built in 1611 but lost 5 story main tower by fire caused by thunderbolt in 1627.

Existing 3 story castle tower was built in 1811 to substitute the original tower.
It's not called the castle tower to show there's no intention to rebel against Shogun.

Cherry blossoms are famous here in Hirosaki Park.
