Wakasa

Wakasa has served as a castle town in the mountain interior of eastern Tottori Prefecture since the Sengoku period. The Hattō River passes through this small community in Yazu District, amid uplands that lead towards the Hyōnosen mountain area. Above the centre are the remains of Wakasa Oniga Castle, including sections of stone fortifications that recall the town’s feudal past. Wakasa is also the terminus of the Wakasa Railway, a local line linking it with Kōge. Browse other webcams across Tottori Prefecture to place Wakasa’s mountain setting in a wider geographic context.
