    Takeda Castle Ruins Takeda Castle Ruins locates in the city of Asago in Hyogo prefecture, and is nicknamed “Japan’s Machu Picchu”. It locates 353 meters above the ground on Mount Kojo and measures 100 meters wide and 400 meters long. Construction of the castle began in 1443 by Yamana Sozen, and was complete 13 years later. In 1590, feudal warrior Akamatsu Hirohide completed the stonewalls surrounding the castle. After Akamatsu experienced a brutal defeat in the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600, the castle was abandoned. Today, Takeda Castle Ruins is known for its spectacular views created by the sea of clouds. In the early morning hours between September and November, you might be able to see the sea of clouds surround the castle. The view from Ritsuun Gorge, located near the castle, is absolutely amazing.
