| Today we took a 40 minute ride north to Hirado. |
 |
| This is a temple outside of Hirado Castle. This area was the first in Japan to encounter Christian missionaries. |
 |
| Another temple outside of the castle. |
 |
| I liked this wall of umbrellas. |
 |
| Here is the actual castle. We chose to stay outside but you can walk up the stairs to the balcony on the 3rd floor. |
 |
| After exploring outside of the castle we continued up the hill. |
 |
| This is the memorial to the first English person to come to Japan. His name was William Adams. |
 |
| Another view of the castle. |
