In Hirosaki, Aomori prefecture, there’s a castle that was originally built in 1611. Back that time, it had five stories, but then it burnt down and was rebuilt only later on. That’s why now you can see just three stories.

Aomori prefecture is well known for apples and that’s why Hirosaki has an apple pie guide map that collects more than 50 shops and tells tourists about their texture and sweetness, so that everyone can find the perfect one.
