We toured the castle and grounds, visited the museum and had lunch at a Chinese restaurant right outside the castle. The construction of Matsumoto Castle started in 1504! That's just so amazing to me.
Then we poked around town for awhile, bought some souvenirs, then headed home. It was a fun day and my first time traveling to western Japan.

My wife and I went to Matsumoto-jo in 1998 when we went to Nagano for the '98 Olympics.
It's a nice castle. And it's still the original structure...not rebuilt.
