Another video! I jumped in the car and drove down the road for about 10 minutes or so. Me and Taiga ended up at the Asahiyama Castle Ruins, a site that had seen some conflict back in the day. It is a shame that there are no gates, towers or even stonework but that’s the way the cookie crumbles. What has remained is a little of the sculpting of the mountain in the form of a dry moat (ditch). Have I hyped it too much?

I have noticed that my videos in the past have been lacking greatly with regards to information. I’m happy to say that relatively speaking, this video is choc-full o’ facts. Relatively speaking.
