A Castle Crowned in Petals

Spring at Nagahama Castle was a scene straight out of a samurai-era painting. Standing proudly against the sky, the castle was framed by cherry blossoms in full bloom, their delicate pinks softening the strong lines of stone and wood. As I strolled along the moat under falling petals, I felt transported to a gentler time where nature and history whispered together in harmony. #cherryblossom25
