About Himeji


Himeji is a city in the Kansai region of Japan. It's known for the sprawling, centuries-old, white Himeji Castle, one of the few original castles from Japan's feudal period. The top floor of the 6-story main keep offers views over the extensive castle grounds. The Nishi-no-Maru section of the complex contains royal residential quarters. Next to the castle, Kōko-en is a traditional Edo-style garden.
