Nishimikado

In the past, the west gate, which can be called the main gate of Hanamaki Castle's main enclosure, served as a preparation for the main enclosure and as an entrance for the feudal lord and others. Hanamaki Castle was unable to build a castle tower, so old pictures depict the west gate as the castle tower, and the structure is reminiscent of a tower building. The project was started in 1992 to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the founding of Hanamaki Town, and was completed in 1994.
