    Ogaki Castle & Sumimata Ichiyo Castle
    Ogaki City, Gifu Prefecture, is home to Ogaki Castle, where Hidenaga Toyotomi served as lord for a time, and Sumimata Ichiyo Castle, which Hideyoshi Toyotomi used as a stepping stone to success in his career. Ogaki and Sumimata were inns on the Mino Road and historically the scene of constant warfare. Sumimata was the scene of the Jinshin Rebellion in ancient times, and Ogaki was the residence of Ishida Mitsunari during the Battle of Sekigahara, and the area has appeared at many historical turning points.

    This time, we will hold a historical exploration tour, moving between these two historical areas and exploring their connection with the Toyotomi siblings while walking around the town as the main theme.

    About Sankeien
    Sankeien was created by Sankei Hara, a businessman who made his fortune through the silk trade. The garden, covering approximately 17.5 hectares ( (about 3.7 times the size of the Tokyo Dome), is a Japanese garden where visitors can enjoy seasonal scenery in harmony with ancient architecture and nature. When the garden first opened, the garden was opened to the public free of charge for 24 hours a day under the slogan "free to visit," reflecting Hara Sankei's belief that "beautiful things should be enjoyed by everyone together. During Hara Sankei's lifetime, the garden also served as a place to nurture and support budding artists, and is highly regarded for its contribution to Japanese art, having produced artists such as Yokoyama Taikan, Shimomura Kanzan, and Maeda Seison. In 1953 ( Showa 28 ), the Hara family transferred the property to the City of Yokohama, and the Sankeien Hoshokukai Foundation was established, which continues to this day. Of the 17 old buildings in the park, 10 are designated as Important Cultural Properties and 3 are designated as Tangible Cultural Properties by Yokohama City.
