Kitsuki Castle Town
- 杵築城下町
- Oita & Beppu
Kitsuki Castle Town is an area that retains its Edo period atmosphere, with its samurai residences in the north and southern areas, the cobblestone road, and with Kitsuki Castle at its center. The cityscape was not restored nor reproduced in the present; rather, everything was left just as it was during the Edo period. So much of history remains in the area that historical researchers have regarded it as "Japan's most renowned Castle Town."
