Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
弘前市
Hirosaki is a city in Aomori’s Tsugaru region. Explore different periods of architecture through the castle park and twin-towered former library. The keep is undergoing relocation and conservation work, so check current viewing areas first.
This guide covers places within Hirosaki, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

Relocation back to its original position is underway in 2026. The 2022 photo shows a temporary position; check present exterior viewing areas and restrictions.
