Walking Around Himeji Castle in Full Bloom 2025 [4K/HDR/Binaural]

In early April, Himeji Castle is surrounded by cherry blossoms in full bloom, and the whole area comes alive with visitors. But most people just visit the castle itself and miss everything around it. So today, I want to take you on one of my favorite walking routes that circles all the way around the castle. The north side of Himeji Castle, in particular, is a hidden gem for cherry blossoms—known mostly only to locals like me. By the time this video goes up, the blossoms might already be gone. But if you’re planning a trip to Himeji during next year’s cherry blossom season, I hope you’ll take your time and enjoy a peaceful stroll through this beautiful area.
