I finally made it to Kofu, Yamanashi. It was the last stop on my Yamanashi journey and I had one day to see everything.
First up, I went to where Kofu Castle used to be. It's now just a park with some ruins of the castle but there is a great view of the city from the top.
Second, I decided to check out more about Takeda Shingen. He was a daimyo here and his image and name is all over the place. I went to see his statue by the station and shrine.
Finally, I took a bus for almost 50 minutes to Shosenkyo Gorge. I took the ropeway up a mountain to see the view from the top then walked down (part of) the gorge.
Kofu was amazing! It was this blend of rich history and beautiful nature, all under the view of Mt. Fuji.
Much love and happy travels

P.S. Sorry about the wind sound in the audio. Also, I was here on October 9th to give my talk about autumn colours more context.
