The cityscape of Izushi seen from the hill above the ruins of Izushi Castle is beautiful. The Yamana clan had built Arikoyama Castle on the summit of Mt.

Originally, Izushi Castle at the foot of the mountain did not have a castle tower, but in any case, the stone walls that lined the streets of Izushi remind us of the atmosphere of the time.
