Gassan Toda Castle Ruins

A massive mountain castle ruin of the Amago clan in Yasugi City, once feared as "impregnable" during the Warring States period. It skillfully utilizes the terrain of the 190m high Mt. Gassan, and remains of stone walls and moats can still be seen.

It is a moving spot where tragic and heroic historical romances are carved, perfect for those wanting to touch the samurai spirit.
