This location is close to Nishitetsu Bus Centre and it takes only 15 minutes on foot. It is not hard to reach, because there are many signs (Kurume Castle) and a tourist walking map in Kurume. There were so many sakura trees near the castle and inside the castle. Moreover, the beautiful view for sakura is on the road right in front of the castle. I went there on a weekday, so it wasn't very crowded and the perfect time to take great pictures.
