While visiting Koyasan certainly has become more popular ever since it was declared part of the world heritage, exploring Wakayama prefecture still very much remains an option off the beaten path. As is evident by this concise insight into the castle grounds, you can easily spend a day or two learning and enjoying the heartland of umeboshi. Fun fact, famous enka singer Sakamoto Fuyumi not only is an avid advocate of her home prefecture, but she also joined the umeboshi company 'Umeta Corporation' after high school, through an introduction by the director of the prefectural broadcasting system. Her love for Wakayama is so strong that she sells three types of plums at her concerts - lightly salted, shiso and honey, all directly from the prefecture.

I miss Japan........
最高 ^^ 입니다.
There was also a castle in Wakayama. I did not know.
I also posted a video of walking in Japan, so if you like, click the cat icon.
How long would it take by train to get there from Kyoto?
It takes 2 hours and 30 minutes from Kyoto Station.
@@Kappa2700s um....kind of far...
It takes a long time since it is more than 100 kilometers from Kyoto Station to Wakayama Castle.😓
@@Kappa2700s Um....but, looks like worth a day trip...would it be closer if I start out at Nara? Or Osaka?
Wakayama is on the south side of Osaka, so it's closer to heading from Osaka. Still, I think it will take more than 1 hour and 30 minutes.😅
10:08, it looks so good.
