Takiyama Castle, Hill castle in Takatsukimachi, Japan
Located at an elevation of 160 meters, Takiyama Castle extends across a military ridge at the southern confluence of the Tama and Aki Rivers.
The castle construction began in 1521 under the direction of Oishi Sadashige, who established it as a strategic defensive position during the Sengoku period.
The castle stands as a designated Historic Site of Japan and holds a position in the Continued Top 100 Japanese Castles list since 2017.
Visitors can access the castle ruins through a well-maintained trail system, with informative signs installed at key structural points since March 2012.
An augmented reality application released in June 2016 enables visitors to visualize the castle's appearance from 450 years ago through digital reconstruction.
