Tokamachi City

Typical example of the biggest mountain castles.
This fort was built in such a hurry that trees were used as cut without processing; this left the wood will dark black knots. The fort's name is taken from this unusual characteristic. From the observation deck you can see Echigosanzan (the three main peaks of Echigo).
