Ruins of Kofu Castle is located in Kofu City, where used to be in Kai Province.
It is said that the Kofu Castle was built in 1583 by TOKUGAWA Ieyasu (1543 - 1616).
At the south of Kofu Castle, a moat remains.
Also, stone walls surrounding baileys can be seen, as if they pile up in many layers.
The white mud walls on the top of stone walls were very impressive.

英語版のサイトに、先日紹介した甲府城のページをアップデートしました:
石垣が幾重にも折り重なり、近年は稲荷櫓やいくつかの門が再建され、
江戸時代の佇まいを取り戻しつつあります。
天守台からの富士山の姿も、見事でした。
