Iwakuni is an amazing little town. We start the day at its star attraction, a very unique bridge called Kintaikyo Bridge. It's much steeper in person, and the woodwork is beautiful. We probably spent more time there than we should have! Then we unexpectedly encounter cherry blossoms, in OCTOBER?! How unusual! After heading up the Iwakuni Ropeway to the top of the mountain, we slowly stroll to Iwakuni Castle. Though this castle is less impressive than others we've seen, we almost have it to ourselves and it has a stunning view overlooking Iwakuni (plus Bill was able to fly our drone!). After looking around the grounds, we head to our friends' favorite sushi train restaurant, since they heard we hadn't been ton one before! This was an amazing day full of new things and blessed with friends.

Kintaikyo, Iwakuni Japan, and the legend of Sasaki Kojiro
In the Japanese town of Iwakuni, you might come across an impressive statue of a swordsman in one of its largest and most popular parks. The statue carries with it an interesting bit of martial arts history associated with this town that I wanted to try and introduce you to here. It is a representation and tribute to the famed Sasaki Kojiro and this is a brief synopses of his connection to this city. While some of the details of my run-down are undoubtedly in dispute (the sources vary wildly in the details as this goes back the the dawn of the Tokugawa era when records were unreliable at best), I tried to present all the information as I have personally learned it. More resources are listed below. I hope you enjoy and as always, let me know if there is anything else I can help with!
