A water castle along Ise Bay built by Honda Tadakatsu. It has now been developed into Kyuka Park, and is beloved by locals as a famous spot for cherry blossoms and azaleas.
Kuwana Castle, a water castle built by Honda Tadakatsu, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Tokugawa clan, is attractive for its strategic structure that makes use of the Ibi River. It is now maintained as Kyuka Park, and the restored Banryu Yagura (Banryu Tower) and Tadakatsu statue give a sense of historical romance. A stroll along the quiet moat is recommended not only for castle lovers but also for those seeking relaxation.
