Discover Tatsuno

Tatsuno (たつの) is a city of 71,000 people (2024) in Hyogo. It is home to a reconstructed Edo Period palace castle. There are two train lines that run through Tatsuno, the Sanyo Main Line and the Kishin Line. On the Sanyo Main Line, the only station within the city is Tatsuno Station. If you're traveling on the Shinkansen from the west, it is one stop from Aioi Station or a short train ride from Himeji Station if you're coming from the east. The Kishin Line travels northwest through the city from Himeji to Sayo (and continuing on further to Tsuyama and eventually terminating in Niimi). There are 5 stations along the Kishin Line in Tatsuno. Those wanting to travel to the former castle town area should get off at Hon-Tatsuno Station.
