伊予大洲城は松山から40km程西南、肱川の畔にあります。
対岸から眺める復元天守が綺麗でした。

The ruins of Iyo-Ozu Castle are located approximately forty kilometers to the southwest of Matsuyama City.
The history of the Iyo-Ozu Castle started in the fourteenth century, when UTSUNOMIYA Toyofusa (1293-1369) built the castle in 1331. At the end of the sixteenth century, TODO Takatora (1556-1630) and WAKISAKA Yasuharu (1554-1626) became a castle lord and made Iyo-Ozu Castle as a modern castle.
Iyo-Ozu Castle was located by a riverside of the Hiji River.
When you cross over the Hijikawa Bridge, you will see the view of Iyo-Ozu Castle and Hiji River.
On the main bailey, the Main Castle Tower, the "Korai" Turret and the "Daidokoro" Turret are located.
The Main Castle Tower was rebuilt in 2004, as it was in the Edo Age and the same technologies and methods in the Edo Age were used.
From the top floor of the Main Castle Tower, you can see the Hiji River. It was in the middle of summer and very hot, when I visited.
The wind from the river was very comfortable.
The third bailey of Iyo-Ozu Castle was located to the south of the main bailey during the Edo Age, where the retainer's residences were located. The atmosphere of a small avenue was very nice.
