Nago Castle, Castle ruins in Nago, Japan

The stone remains of Nago Castle stand on Mount Nago, featuring ancient limestone walls and stone staircases that extend across 71 hectares of parkland.

Built in the early 14th century as a residence for the Aji of Nago Magiri, the castle fell to Chuzan forces under Sho Hashi's command in 1416.

The castle grounds host the Nago Cherry Blossom Festival in January, marking the first sakura blooming season in Japan each year.

Visitors can access multiple designated areas marked alphabetically throughout the park, including rest facilities, observation points, and children's play zones.

The castle site incorporates a three-story observatory that provides views of both the East China Sea and the surrounding mountainous landscape.
