Aoki Castle, Historical castle ruins in Kanagawa-ku, Japan
The castle site contains earthen walls and defensive structures positioned on elevated terrain, reflecting traditional Japanese fortification design principles.
Built in 1520, the castle changed hands between different clans, including the Uesugi and Hōjō, during Japan's tumultuous Warring States period.
The remaining foundations and earthworks demonstrate the military architecture techniques used in Japanese castle construction during the 16th century.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins by taking the JR Yokohama line to Kozukue Station and following the marked pathways to the historical site.
The castle's location near the former first American consulate, now the Hongakuji Temple, connects it to both feudal and modern Japanese history.
