お城があれば、城下町あり 大洲もまさに、そんな町でした。
明治以降の建物が多いのですが、狭い通りの落ち着いた町並みは、以前NHKのドラマの舞台になったそうです。
肱川の畔の臥龍山荘は素晴らしかったです。

Ozu in Iyo Area, currently Ehime Prefecture, is a castle town. Ozu Town was developed in the Edo Age (1603-1868) .
In the third bailey, which was located in the southern part of Iyo-Ozu Castle, retainer's residences were located. 

A couple of them stil remain.



To the south of the "Minami" Turret, "Sokei-Zenin" Temple is located.
After passing through the middle gate, you will see the main hall and the red gate to the mausoleums of KATO clan. 

Unfortunately, the red gate was closed when I visited.



If you walk to the east, the Ozu historical town is located. 
The below picture shows the view of Ozu Town from Ozu Shrine.



To the further east from the historical district of Ozu Town, the "Garyu-Sanso" is located. 
The "Garyu-Sanso" was originally built as a garden in the middle of 1590s. 
In the Edo Age, castle lords often visited the "Garyu-Sanso".



The "Garyu-Sanso" is located by the Hiji River. The view of the Hiji River from the "Garyu-Sanso" was very beautiful.
