Atami Castle

Atami Castle, Atami Overview

Worth knowing before you go: there was never a castle here. This one went up in 1959 as a tourist attraction during the post-war domestic travel boom, styled after Azuchi-Momoyama architecture. What it does have is a 360-degree deck over the bay and the Izu peninsula, a samurai armour collection and a foot bath at 120 metres. Reached by ropeway from Korakuen.
