Admission fees, points of interest, and travel information for visiting and touring Akashi Castle and its ruins - Japan Travel Planner

Beside the foot of the eastern yagura is a colossal wall which makes up the foundation of the castle keep. The keep was never built however, and up the adjacent staircase is a massive open space full of greenery.

Turn back toward the entrance and a look over the wall conjoining the two yagura presents a stunning view of Akashi city and the looming suspension bridge in the distance.
