Wakayama Castle & Kuroshio Market One Day Cherry Blossoms Tour

Enjoy one day tour in Wakayama! Your first stop is Wakayama Castle, which was built in 1585 under the command of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. In the Edo period, it flourished as an important base for the Tokugawa Clan, which turned out great numbers of generals. Now it serves as a symbol of Wakayama City, and its tower offers great views of the whole town. With approximately 600 famous cherry blossom trees, the castle is also a popular cherry blossom viewing spot in spring. There is a zoo next to the castle, which is sectioned into a Fairy Tale Garden and a Waterfowl Garden where you can take a stroll and try feeding some of the animals.
