Ozu Ohanahan Street Jinrikisha Ride - Ehime - おはなはん通り - 4K Ultra HD
Described by many as the little Kyoto of Ehime, Ozu does not only offer one of Japan's most stunning gardens, the Garyu Sanso but also the chance to enjoy the city in a whole new angle by roaming its historic streets also known as Ohanahan Dori (streets).
While walking around these streets is highly recommended when visiting Ozu, it is possible to visit Ozu’s old town while being comfortably seated in an elegant Jinrikisha (a traditional Japanese rickshaw). Available most of the time all year long, rickshaw rides can be booked, when available, on spot directly from Ozu’s tourist information center.
Français ????????
Surnommée par beaucoup comme étant la petite Kyoto d’Ehime, Ozu nous propose d’une part un des plus beaux jardin du Japon, le Garyu Sanso, mais aussi la possibilité de profiter de la ville sous un tout nouvel angle en flânant dans ses rues historiques aussi connues comme Ohanahan Dori (rues).
Alors qu’il est fortement recommandé de parcourir ces rues lors d’une visite à Ozu, il est aussi possible de visiter la vieille ville d’Ozu tout en s’asseyant confortablement dans un Jinrikisha (un pousse-pousse japonais traditionnel). En service tout au long de l’année, le pousse-pousse peut être soit réservé, soit pris depuis son spot à l’office du tourisme d’Ozu, si disponible.

【020】Ehime Ozu Castle
Subscribe link :
Ozu Castle (大洲城, Ōzujō) stands on a hill by Hijikawa River in the northwestern part of downtown Ozu. Ozu City (大洲, Ōzu) is located in Ehime Prefecture on the western coast of Shikoku. The city emerged during the Edo Period (1603-1867) as a castle town. The recently reconstructed Ozu Castle stands proudly in the city center as the local icon. The castle has its origins in the 1300s, and it was rebuilt a few times over the years upon destruction by fire, as well as natural and human-caused disasters. The current castle has been reconstructed in phases since the 1950s, and the reconstruction of the main keep was finally completed in 2004.
Different from many other castles that were rebuilt in the last century using ferro concrete, the main keep of Ozu Castle was crafted mainly with wood and traditional construction techniques. That skill added the castle more value. As a result, it looks close to the original castle not only from the outside but also inside. The main keep is flanked by turrets on two sides, an interesting feature that is quite rare among Japanese castles, many of which have just solitary standing main keeps.
Inside the castle buildings, there are exhibits about the history of Ozu, maps about the local topography from past to present, models of the castle, and displays of armors and other items belonging to past feudal lords. Ascending to the top of the four story main keep rewards visitors with good views over the city and the river.

Hours: 9:00 to 17:00 (last entry 16:30)

Japan Trip: Old castle town. Many attractive spots in Ozu, Ehime, Japan
Ozu City (大洲, Ōzu) is located in Ehime Prefecture on the western coast of Shikoku. The city emerged during the Edo Period (1603-1867) as a castle town. A section of the old town remains today with nostalgic alleys and old-fashioned houses, serving as remembrance both to the days of the Edo Period and the Meiji Period (1868-1912).
There are the following attractions and events.
Garyu Sanso; country-style, yet graceful villa with prominent garden.

Ozu Old Town; nostalgic atmosphere with old fashioned houses.
The recently reconstructed Ozu Castle stands proudly in the city center as the local icon.

24 Hours in Kumamoto ???? First Time Visit
Kumamoto City is the capital of Kumamoto Prefecture on the island of Kyushu. The city is most famous for its castle. The Kumamoto Castle was completed in 1607 by Kato Kiyomasa. It was destroyed by fire in 1877 and rebuilt in 1960 but was damaged again by the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake. After undergoing repairs, the main tower of the Castle reopened in 2021.
We also visited the beautiful Japanese garden, Suizenji Jojuen. It was built by Lord Hosokawa Tadatoshi in the 17th century as a site for a tea house and a temple. The location was chosen for its natural spring and high-quality water.
