Japan Van Life Ch 18 – 1 Day in Matsumoto

Take a tour of the inside Japan’s oldest castle on our walking tour of Matsumoto! Matsumoto is famous for its black Crow Castle, one of Japan’s 3 “Premier Castles” and the oldest structure of its kind, making it a Japanese National Treasure. We were shocked to know that this was the original structure that has been standing for over 400 years!

Of course we couldn’t visit Matsumoto without walking around its traditional streets, Nawate dori (Frog Street) and Nakamachi Street, and trying some of the food, too, though! Come and explore Matsumoto City with us in our latest Japan travel vlog 🏯🥷🏻
