“A hirayama castle (also known as Kameyama Castle) built on Kameyama, which has an altitude of about 66m, and its biggest feature is the height of the stone walls. It boasts the highest in Japan at about 60m. Also, the road that leads from the Otemon gate to the castle tower is a steep slope, and it is called "Mikaeri no Saka" because it makes you want to stop and look back.”
