October itinerary in Japan Day 3 (Fukui Day 1)

October itinerary in Japan Day 3 (Fukui Day 1) (Friday, October 22)   Table of contents 1. Maruoka Castle 2. Eiheiji Temple 3. Ichijodani Asakura Ruins   1. Maruoka Castle On the third day (October 22nd), I headed from Ishikawa prefecture to Fukui prefecture. The first place I visited was Maruoka Castle. I had created an itinerary in advance, but when I bought a ticket at Kanazawa Station, I accidentally bought it at Fukui Station instead of what I should have bought at Awara Onsen Station, and I lost a lot of time. It takes 19 minutes by bus from Awara Onsen Station to Maruoka Castle, but 50 minutes from Fukui Station. Just in case, I will post the itinerary that I originally planned. This route is the most efficient. JR Kanazawa Station 8:48 departure   Shirasagi 56   Awara Onsen Station 9:24 arrival, Awara Onsen Station 9:30 departure   87 Awara Maruoka Eiheiji Line   9:49 Maruoka Castle arrival Even if you go to Tojinbo, Awara Onsen Station is more convenient than Fukui Station because it is closer to Tojinbo. Limited to weekends and holidays, there are free tickets to visit Tojinbo, Awara Onsen, Awara Onsen Station, Maruoka Castle, and Eiheiji Temple.
