The town of Odawara was historically built around the castle. What remains today is the keep, which is at the heart of a public garden featuring a number of attractions linked to the history of samurai and ninjas. The castle contains documents on the city's history. Hojo-sōun (1432-1519), a member of the Hojo clan, one of the most powerful of the civil war period, attacked the castle built shortly before, in 1494, and settled there. In 1578, Hōjō Ujimasa, refusing to submit to Toyotomi Hideyoshi, was attacked at Odawara and committed suicide.

Un château spectaculaire sur un grand domaine
Entre Hakone et Tokyo, un arrêt d'une demi-journée permet de visiter le château d'Odawara, accessible à pied depuis la gare. On entre d'abord dans l'immense parc entouré d'un canal et de remparts puis on rejoint sur une hauteur le magnifique château en bois. L'intérieur moderne offre des expositions intéressantes sur les samouraïs et les ninjas

château à découvrir aussi à la tombée de la nuit
château à visiter le jour pour l'intérieur, mais restez pour le jeu de lumières le soir sur la façade et les cerisiers en fleurs
