A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
掛川市
Kakegawa is a city in Shizuoka. Explore castle and historic residential architecture at Kakegawa Castle and Takenomaru. Distinguish the reconstructed keep from surviving historic buildings and check current guidance for each facility.
This guide covers places within Kakegawa, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
01A first-visit stop
掛川城
The photo shows the reconstructed wooden keep in 2013. The keep was rebuilt in 1994 and is distinct from the historic palace building. Follow guidance for stairs and interior photography and check current access to each building.
Getting there

02A first-visit stop
竹の丸
A visitor site for a historic residence and garden. The photo shows its exterior in 2017. Visits, room hire and café service are distinct activities; check current opening and reservation conditions for each.
