Odawara Castle小田原城

Odawara Castle is a historical castle located in Odawara, Japan. It was originally built in the late 15th century and served as the seat of the Late Hōjō clan. The castle was expanded and reinforced in the 16th century, and served as a major stronghold during the Sengoku period. The castle was dismantled in the Meiji period, but was later rebuilt in the 1960s to serve as a tourist attraction.
