Château de Swan, Japanese castle in Uchikoshi, Himeji City, Japan

Swan Castle stands as a scaled reproduction of Germany's Neuschwanstein Castle within the Taiyo Koen theme park complex in Himeji City.

The castle functions as an architectural homage to European design, representing a fusion between Japanese and German castle construction techniques in modern times.

The Welcome House Swan accompanies the castle structure, offering Japanese and international dining options, including vegetarian curry and halal-certified meals.

The castle remains open daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with adult admission at 1,500 yen while children under elementary school age enter free.

Three hundred parking spaces surround the castle grounds, which maintain barrier-free access throughout the facility for visitors with physical limitations.
