This and the sights along the Azuma Bandai Skyline are why we went. Neither disappointed. The colors of the many ponds are wonderful. The fall colors of the trees complemented perfectly. The water is incredibly clear.

Kasumi-ga-jō, the ruined castle at Nihonmatsu, was not really the focus of our visit. The sakura there were our target and they were at peak on April 16 when we visited. We spent a long time at the first (reconstructed) gate trying to capture a photo with no people - it required a lot of patience. The climb to the top of the castle mount is easy offers many places for stopping and viewing nature. There are several view points, many natural features including sakura, ponds, shaped trees and a tea house. Do climb to the top of the mountain for a spectacular view of snow-covered mountains, yellow fields of mustard flowers (nanohana) and hundreds if not thousands of sakura. From here you can walk on the stone castle ramparts and take in the expansive 360 degree views.

If you drive to Ouchijuku from above on the mountain road, you will first come to a restaurant that's just before the village. The restaurant has a large, gravel parking area. The car in front of us pulled into it and so we followed as we didn't know where the village parking was. Turns out, there's a secret path from here to the top of the Ouchijuku village that's shorter than walking from the official parking lots. The path starts next to the restaurant and is an improved walkway, with steps down and a bridge across the creek to a road that goes to the village. After visiting the village we had a zaru soba snack at the restaurant and their homemade soba was better than what we had in the village.
