Northern Kyushu Trip 2023 - Day 4 - Day Trip to Kumamoto - Kumamoto Castle

Once we reached Kumamoto Station, just follow the sign for the tram or bus. We decided to take the tram. We did not get the one day tram pass, we just pay when we reached Kumamoto Castle.  Always enter at the rear door and pay at the front door where the driver is.




It is easy to take the tram, just follow the map. Maps are available inside the tram too.




Kumamoto Castle experienced a bad earthquake few years back,damaged a lot of the castle buildings. 
Lots of restoration going on still when we visited the castle.


Kumamoto Castle was listed as one of the 100 fine castles of Japan.
Saw a cute Japanese girl taking photo at the castle.
