Go beyond the city of Tokyo, and experience Japanese traditional culture and history first-hand at one of the only remaining Japanese Castles. Climb the tower of the over 400-year-old castle and learn about the history as you view real Samurai swords and explore what life was like in war-torn Sengoku Japan. We bring you tips to enjoy the museum, the castle and nearby areas to their fullest, including where to eat! If you enjoy this podcast, please take a few moments to share and write a review. Thank you!
