    This castle site in Uchiyama, Kururi, Kimitsu City formerly belonged to the Satomi and Kuroda clans. It's also known as the Rain Castle as after completion it rained every three days, hiding it in a shroud of fog. It was abandoned in the early Meiji era (1868?1912), but the castle tower was restored in 1978, and today hosts the Kururi Castle Museum. The area around it is now a park.

Inside the park, besides being able to see the castle tower ruins and large tactical dry moat, you can also enjoy the many seasonal trees.

Further inland, Narita - most famous as the home of Narita Airport - is a secret haven of tradition and history in the form of centuries-old Shinshoji Temple and quaint wooden Edo buildings. Chiba prefecture is also home to both Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea.
