Hikone Castle is an Edo-period Japanese castle located in the city of Hikone, Shiga Prefecture, Japan. It is considered the most significant historical site in Shiga. The site has been protected as a National Historic Site since 1951. Hikone is one of only twelve castles in Japan with its original tenshu, and one of only five castles with buildings listed as National Treasures.
Distance-wise, Hikone is closest to Tokyo (~312 km), Singapore (~5,043 km), Dubai (~7,650 km); São Paulo is the far end at roughly 18,685 km. That ordering matters more than the timezone label for travel planning.
