Maruoka Tourist Volunteer Guide

Maruoka Castle is the only surviving castle keep in the Hokuriku region.

Its imposing presence exudes the dignity of ancient warriors.

Its rare stone-roofed tiles are a must-see, and the castle tower foundation stone walls, built with natural stones in a rough-hewn style, are also magnificent.

Additionally, the cherry blossoms in spring, autumn foliage, and winter snowscapes are also highlights.

We invite you to explore the historic town of Maruoka. [Office]
