Not sure about how, I assume taxi . My only advice would be , as you’re going at blossom time as did we this year, to arrive as early as you can as queues build up quickly and entrance was suspended for a while at lunchtime because of the crowds . The views from outside however are the best, and don’t miss the adjacent gardens that you can include on a combi ticket.
I know this has been asked and answered several times before, but I feel like it needs to be updated given that Japan just opened up recently from Covid closures. Are there luggage storage lockers as we are planning to stop on our way from Kyoto to Hiroshima? How much are they?
Hello. I would like to visit Himeji Castle around 6 pm. How close can I get to the castle at that time? Can I get to Bizenmaru for nice pictures or the gates are closed to some point? Thank you
Hi. Can we bring small backpacks to the castle - is there a cloakroom to store them? Thank you.
答:
We took a small backpack that had our camera and lenses in it. Although we didn’t use the checked bags, I believe there is a place to store some smaller things for a small fee.
