Hagi Castle, Yamaguchi in Cherry Blossom Season - 山口県萩城跡✿指月公園 - Japan As It Truly Is
The remains of Hagi Castle in Yamaguchi become one of southern Honshu's best sakura spots, and is an often overlooked gem.
Hagi is a city on the Sea of Japan side with a large historical significance, especially from the late 19th Century. After the Meiji Restoration though, the feudal age was drawn to a close and numerous beautiful castles were destroyed...this one in 1874. Today however you can see the beautiful Shizuki Park with a unique variety of cherry blossoms.

Walking in Hagi City Japan 萩市散歩 - Walk to Castle Ruins in Yamaguchi Prefecture
I'm trying to get to the castle ruins in scorching heat (Vancouver people are very sensitive to warm weather).
Some people probably don't know but Hagi city in Yamaguchi has quite a bit of sightseeing...

Japan travel: is this shrine Japan's best hidden shrine? | Hagi, Japan
#Japan #Travel #Hagi
I based myself near Higashi Hagi station and explored the old castle ruins, Daishoin temple, Aibagawa waterway, Tokoji temple and Shoin shrine.
It took a while getting to grips with getting around the city by public transport but was able to enjoy some of the most epic and beautiful Japanese temples and shrines I've ever seen.
Best of all there were very few people in these incredible Japanese tourist spots and japanese shrines.
If you like japanese temples then hagi japan will be quite a surprise!
Hagi Castle Wall Ruins
I was on a bike while filming this so sorry for the bumpy film..
'In 1608, Mori clan built Hagi Castle at the foot of Mt.Shizuki. Hagi castle had been the political center of Choshu-han(currently Yamaguchi prefecture) for about 250 years. Now stone walls, moats and gardens are kept as the ruins. '
Tokoji Temple, Hagi Yamaguchi - 東光寺●山口県萩市 - Japan As It Truly Is
Tokoji is one of two huge temples used by the Mori Clan of Hagi (Choshu). It shows the enormous power they wielded.
Additionally there is also the Daishoin Temple nearby that complements Tokoji and used for the other half of the family. The Choshu domain would later be one of the prime actors in overthrowing the Shogun and restoring direct rule to the Emperor in 1868. It also had considerable influence on the Japanese government and new army well into the start of the 20th Century.
Tokoji was established in 1691 and every other generation was buried in the family graveyard. This video shows the temple at the peak of the cherry blossom season, which is one of the best times to visit it.

Located on the delta of the Abu River facing the Sea of Japan, Hagi is a well preserved historic town, with its samurai heritage and beautiful Hagiyaki Pottery. Visitors interested in Hagi’s rich past are advised to visit Hagi Museum.
Built in 2004, the museum is centered on the concept of “Hagiology.” Hagiology has many sub-themes such as nature, culture, history and so on, as Hagi is rich with all these elements and more. Within the museum, visitors can examine historic artifacts and view the displays. As Hagi is home to many famous characters of Japanese history, such as Yoshida Shoin (a key player in shaping Japan’s future pre-Meiji Restoration), there are also displays about them here as well. And English information is available.
There is a gift shop within the museum with local souvenirs such as summer tangerine. Books about local historic figures as well as Hagi original items are available here. In addition to the gift shop, there is a restaurant within the museum as well. Dishes include local Hagi meat and seafood entrees. Visitors with a sweet tooth may opt for the summer tangerine ice cream which is supposedly served only here.
