Sekiyado Castle Riverside

関宿城周辺

Chiba · Kanto

At the meeting of major rivers, Sekiyado offers levee paths, sky views, and a small castle-style museum. The landscape feels flat, spacious, and very Kanto.

Why it's hidden

It is remote without a car and is more regional history than headline sightseeing.
