*How to Travel to Matsumoto Castle by Train*
From Tokyo to Nagano it takes 1 hour and 22 mins on the Shinkansen. Then from Nagano station, you’ll take the JR to Matsumoto Station which takes about 50 minutes. From Matsumoto station, it is a short 15 minute walk to the castle.
*Matsumoto Travel Tip*
Before heading to Matsumoto I dropped off my luggage in a locker at Nagano station. It's a convenient way to not have to carry a large suitcase everywhere you go for a day. It's super easy to use - just follow the instructions on the computer.
Even though this machine is marked with Suica you can still use PASMO and vice versa. If you're using an older coin locker you should take a picture of the locker and the area around it just in case you forget where it is when you come back for your stuff.
*Does It Cost Money to Visit Matsumoto Castle?*
If you don't want to pay to go into the castle, you can walk around the castle. It is a relaxing stroll and be sure to take plenty of photos of the castle from different angles.
It cost 610 yen a person to go inside the castle courtyard and castle.
*Matsumoto Castle fun facts*
Here are some interesting facts about Matsumoto castle:
- It is unique because it is a hirajiro which is a castle built on plains rather than on a hill or mountain. Because of this the castle has to build its own defense system which includes inter-connecting walls, moats, and gatehouses. Also it makes for great picture because of the Northern Alps in the background of the castle
- There are 12 castles all around Japan but only two is five stories high: this one and Himeji castle. But there's a secret inside: there is an extra floor inside that looks like a loft.
- Matsumoto castle is also known as the black castle because of its black exterior
*Frog Street: Nawate Dori Street*
On your way back to the JR station don't forget to check out Nawate dori street, which is also known as frog street.
There used to be a ton of Kajika frogs which roamed this area. In 1959, a typhoon came and caused the river to overflow. This made all the frogs leave for higher ground and cleaner water upstream. The people worked hard to clean up the river, but the frogs never came back. The people of the city then built many artificial frogs to bring Nawate Street’s spirit back.
In 1972, the Kaeru Daimyoujin, a mini frog shrine, was created to revamp the old street. Nawate Street was then coined Kaeru Machi ('Frog Street'), a place where locals and travelers could bask in the lively atmosphere of days past.
It is Matsumoto's Edo Era-themed shopping street. It takes you back into history and see how shops back then used to look like. There are cute boutique shops and antique dealers. If you want a little snack there are bakeries and candy stories.

Daily Life in Nawate-Dori Street - Matsumoto ᴴᴰ ● なわて通り商店街 松本
► Nawate Dori is a nice little, old fashioned shopping street (dori means street in Japanese) alongside the canal in Matsumoto, halfway between Matsumoto Station and Matsumoto Castle.
It's lined with mostly craft shops, snack foods and little restaurants.
A great little spot for a walk, well worth a visit if you happen to be in Matsumoto. - Enjoy.

คำอธิบาย
JAPANESE FALL FESTIVAL 2019 | Matsumoto City NAGANO JAPAN Mikoshi (お神輿)
Finally! I filmed a Japanese Mikoshi Festival! But it WASN'T in Nagano. This time we travel to Matsumoto with our group of Japanese festival friends (addicts) to help out in THEIR Fall Mikoshi festival.
A Mikoshi is a small shrine or 山車 (だし dashi), which means parade float in Japanese. The kami or god from the area's main shrine is usually placed INTO the Mikoshi, and then carried around town. The festival in Matsumoto was a normal Mikoshi Fall festival where we just carried the Mikoshi around the town. In Nagano City there are some very unique things we also do. You'll have to wait to see those until I can film them NEXT year.
This お神輿(おみこし or Omikoshi) was pretty heavy (though not as heavy as the Higashi machi Omikoshi back in Nagano city), but there were PLENTY of people to help carry it, so it was a pretty laidback day! Long though!
I hope you enjoy!

Matsumoto Castle - 松本城 - 4K Ultra HD
Matsumoto Castle - 松本城 - 4K Ultra HD : Depending on where you are getting your information from, Matsumoto Castle in Nagano is either the second or third most beautiful castle in Japan, and to be fair, we cannot disagree here! Located about 220km away from Tokyo it is considered to be one of Japan’s most important national treasures.
Built in the 16th century, the Matsumoto Castle is unlike many other Japanese castles, built on a plain rather than on a hill or mountain top and surrounded by a picturesque moat.
Gorgeous from the outside, Matsumoto Castle also offers a unique chance for its visitors to travel into the past by allowing them to visit each and every floor, making Matsumoto Castle such a unique experience with its many exhibitions of historical weapons and other architectural wonders.
Highly recommended all year long, Matsumoto Castle is one of these marvels of Japan that everybody needs to visit once in their lifetime!

My second home here... just a random day with some touristy facts. Matsumoto is a 3 to 4 hour ride on the Azusa line from Shinjuku station. Nice way to get outta Tokyo for a long weekend if you can come up with the train fare.... about 17000yen round trip.
