Matsumoto Castle

On the way home from seeing the snow monkeys in Nagano we stoped at Matsumoto Castle also known as Crow Castle because of it's black exterior.  It was beautiful.
We've seen many castles living in Japan and there are so many that I'm OK not seeing them all.  Matsumoto is one of the five oldest castles in Japan so it was worth the short detour.  
The castle was closing up when we arrived.  And even it if wasn't I'm not sure we had the energy to go tour inside.  Penelope and I hoped out of the car and walked around taking pictures while everyone else took a rest in the car.
