Maruokajo


6.27(Wed)
I went to Maruokajou castle.
It is a stage of "Ippitsu keijou, hinoyoujin・・・・・"
"I write a letter.
Beware of fire.
Don't let Osen cry.
Let the horse get fat."

The castle broke by Fukui earthquaike in 1948.
After that, it was rebuilt with same material.
They say that it is a oldest tenshukaku in Japan.

Rode Fukui-Tetsudou from Fukui to Takefushin.

When I walked in front of the Echizen city office.
I saw stone monument.
I read Etsufujou(Echizen-Fuchuujou).
It's Toshiie Maeda's castle.

When I walk, there is a castle.
(When a dog walk, a dog hit a stick)

I heard before that there are 1000 castle or remain in Japan.
I wonder if there are more.

Went to Ryuumonjijou remain.
It's a temple now.

Kuzuryuu-line


6.26(Tue)
I rode JR Kuzuryuu-Line.
It's a local line which runs 9 trains a day.
Its bridges and some rails were broken by heavy rain in 2004.
The broken zone is operated by bus.
Lastly it will be repaired by this 6/30.
This week is a last week of bus running.
It is rare that such local line is repaired.
Usually such line is given up.

The passenger from Fukui station were only 4.

In Oono city, there is a remain of Inoyamajou castle.
I found it on the sightseeing map.

Went to Oono-jou castle.
It is on the top of hill.
Tenshu is a replica.
I was only one who is in the castle.

Oono city is called little Kyoto.
I ate Jpanese soba noodle and sauce pork cutlet donburi.
They were both good.

Came back to Fukui city.
Went to remain of Fukuijou castle.
There is not a castle. There is a Fukui prefecture office.

Went to remain of Kitanoshoujou castle.
There were statues of Katsuei Shibata and Ms. Oichi-no-kata.
They were both killed here.

Katsuyama


6.25(Mon)
I went to Fukui prefecture.
Because I have not gone to Fukui so long time.

I went there by local train.
Because I have not much money and have much time.
And Fukui is near Osaka.

I walked around few minutes in front of Tsuruga station.
There is nothing special.

I arrived Fukui station.
I rode Echizen-Tetsudou Katsuyama-Eiheiji-Line.
I went to Katsuyama City.
Rain.
It's a dinosaur town. There are many dinosaur fossil.
Kuzuryuu-River streams greatly.
There was a remain of Katsuyama-castle.
There were only signboad of castle and stone monument.

My main themes of travel are railways and castles.

Katsuyama locates in mountain area.
I wonder so there are much rain.
After I leaved Katsuyama, rain stopped.

I changed to Echizen-Tetsudou Mikuni-Awara-Line.
There were many high school students.
Terminal is Mikuni-Minato.
There was a Sun-set Beach, but it's cloudy, so I couldn't see sunset.
