A historic castle complemented by pastel pink blossoms

The Mt. Komaki Cherry Blossom Festival takes place with a cherry blossoms blooming amid a backdrop of Komakiyama Castle. During the event period, the blossoms are illuminated at night and on April 5, a fencing contest as well as guided tours of Mt. Komaki, where the castle sits, are available. Komakiyama Castle is a small but historically important castle and the first built by Lord Oda Nobunaga, later becoming a site of the Battle of Komaki and Nagakute.
During the Cherry Blossom Festival when Mt. Komaki is covered in light pink floral hues, the cherry blossoms are illuminated into the night and the area is decorated to resemble the headquarters of Lord Tokugawa Ieyasu during the Battle of Komaki and Nagakute for a distinguished touch to the festivities.
