Château d'Anyang

The castle stands on an elevated position at coordinates 36.63°N, 136.83°E, featuring stone foundations and wooden structures following traditional Japanese architecture patterns.

The fortress dates back to the feudal period when regional lords established defensive positions across mountainous areas to control territorial boundaries and trade routes.

The castle exemplifies the military engineering principles of Japanese fortifications, with strategic placement of walls and watchtowers for maximum territorial observation.

Visitors can reach the castle site through a marked hiking path from the base of the hill, with dedicated parking facilities available at the starting point.
