Odani Castle Ruins

Japan, 5290-312 Ibe, Kohoku-cho, Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture

It was designated a national historic site in 1937. It is also counted as one of the three great mountain castles of the Middle Ages, as it is a typical mountain castle with its enclosures arranged along the east-west ridges, taking advantage of the natural topography of Mt. Otani. From the castle ruins, you can see Lake Biwa, Chikubushima Island, and the idyllic rural scenery to the north of the lake.
