Our guide
Oda Castle was a flatland castle of the Muromachi period in what is now the city of Tsukuba, Ibaraki. It has been a National Historic Site since 1935. Our source says little more than that, so this page is short.
We have not checked what can be seen on the site today or a public-transport route, so look for local information before you go.
