    Fukuoka Pref. Kurumeshi Sasayamamachi 444
    "The site of a castle which once belonged to the Arima, a samurai clan which ruled Kurume Domain for around 250 years during the Edo period. The fortress was also once known as Sasawara (""Bamboo Grass"") Castle or Sasayma Castle. Visitors can still view what remains of the castle's inner citadel. Nearby, visitors can find Sasayama Shrine, a Shinto shrine dedicated to the former domain lord Arima Toyouji; and the Arima Memorial Museum, which displays arms and armor which once belonged to various lords who ruled the area. Yoshino cherries and hill cherries grow on the grounds, and in the spring visitors can enjoy the spectacular scenery their light pink blossoms create."
