Himeji Castle is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a national treasure.
This architectural masterpiece, with a history of over 400 years, is known by the nickname "Shirasagi-jo" (White Heron Castle) due to its beautiful white exterior and intricate design, making it one of the most spectacular castles in Japan.
In addition to its stunning appearance, you can also enjoy a panoramic view from the top floor.

Adjacent to Himeji Castle is Kokoen, a garden composed of nine smaller and larger garden areas, utilizing the layout of the former residences and pathways, along with tree-lined approaches and open spaces. This creates an elegant landscape where history and nature harmonize, allowing you to enjoy the serene aspects of Japanese culture.

After enjoying the architecture, you will have the opportunity to experience traditional Japanese sake at Nadagiku Sake Brewery.
Here, you will tour the wooden sake-making facilities that have been preserved since its founding, followed by some shopping time. You can also enjoy sake tasting.
Additionally, dinner will be served at this sake brewery.

Noh is a representative form of Japanese performing arts with a history of over 600 years, dating back to the Muromachi period.
The main performer wears a mask called "Nohmen" and presents singing and dancing.
Unlike Kabuki, another traditional Japanese art that uses many props and elaborate sets, the main characteristic of Noh is its simplicity, as it does not utilize a large number of tools commonly found in other traditional performances.

On the third day, we will extend our journey from Himeji to see the Akashi Kaikyō Bridge, located between Kobe in Hyogo Prefecture and Awaji Island.
This bridge is the second longest suspension bridge in the world, and its magnificent structure and beautiful scenery attract many tourists.

During this trip, you will visit the "Bridge Science Museum," which showcases the latest technology used during the bridge's construction, as well as the "Maiko Marine Promenade," which features a circular walkway that rises about 47 meters above sea level and extends approximately 317 meters into the Akashi Strait, about150 meters from the land.
