There are more than 10 days left, and Matsuyama Castle, a tourist attraction in Matsuyama City, has been cleaned for a year before the New Year.
At Matsuyama Castle, every year at this time, the castle tower, which has been designated as an important cultural property of the country, is closed all day to clean up the dirt for a year.
About 20 staff members of the office that manages the castle use a broom with a length of about 2 meters from the morning to remove dust from the ceiling and under the eaves of the castle tower, and to collect dirt from the gaps in the walls. I wiped it clean with a rag.
According to the office that manages the castle, next year's New Year's Day will be more than 8000 people, due to the fact that the number of foreign tourists is increasing recently and it is easy to take a long break on the day of the week. We expect 30,000 visitors.
On the 29th of this month, the plaza in front of the castle tower and the road to climb the castle will also be cleaned. I want you to enjoy the historical building of Matsuyama Castle and the wonderful view from the castle tower. "
