Become the star of your own Samurai story!
There’s no better place to have your Samurai Experience than in a city with a real castle from the feudal era!
First take a tour of Matsumoto Castle, one of only five castles designated a “National Treasure” of Japan! The castle walls contain the oldest original five-tiered, six-story castle tower that still exists in Japan today.
During your visit, discover Matsumoto city’s ancient Samurai history!
Then experience a live hands-on Samurai Sword Fighting activity!
Choose the colors of your own outfit. Then select your swords! The staff will dress you like a real Samurai Warrior! Learn how to handle a sword and after practicing some moves, you can have your stage combat recorded on video. With the decoration and atmosphere you’ll think you set foot onto a movie set!
