"Never get lost. Never be disappointed. Your castle-hopping companion." Tsuresou Shiro Navi is a castle-hopping guide app covering all 200 shiro (castles) selected as Japan's 100 Great Castles and Japan's 100 Great Castles: Second Selection by the Japan Castle Foundation. 【Problems We Solve】 - You arrive at a castle and have no idea what the admission fee is, or whether it's even open. - You can't tell in advance whether a shiro still has its tenshu (main keep) standing, or if it's ruins-only. - Getting directions from the nearest station, or checking parking availability, is hard to research beforehand. 【Key Features】 ■ Find a Castle Filter by region and prefecture. Narrow your search by tenshu status (original surviving keep, reconstructed, wooden reconstruction, ruins-only, etc.), how to get there (walk from station, bus, car), and on-site walking difficulty. ■ Map See nearby castles on a map based on your current location. Great for finding a shiro you can casually stop by wherever you are. ■ Practical Information Admission fees, opening hours, closed days, and access (car, train, bus) — collected from each castle's official website, municipal websites, and other primary sources. Fees can change, so we re-check our sources on a regular basis. ■ Check-In Record the castles you've visited. No account required to get started — sign in to carry your records over when you switch devices. ■ Favorites Save castles you're interested in for your next trip. 【Who This App Is For】 - Anyone planning a day trip or overnight castle tour on the weekend - Stamp-rally enthusiasts working through Japan's 100 Great Castles and the Second Selection - International visitors exploring Japan's great shiro (full English support) Castle selections are based on the official designations by the Japan Castle Foundation.
