Hirosaki Castle is in the northeastern section of the Takashiro Region in Forza Horizon 6. Look west of the Nukabira Trail event for the castle grounds, which sit inside a moated area surrounded by trees and connected to the road by bridges.
The Italian Exotics Winter Festival Playlist uses this location for the #ClassyCastle Photo Challenge. You must photograph any Classic Sports Car at Hirosaki Castle to earn the White Suit clothing reward.
Where is Hirosaki Castle?
Open the world map and move to the Takashiro Region. Search the northeastern portion of the area, close to the border with the colder northern regions.
The best nearby landmark is the Nukabira Trail event. Move west from that event and look for a square or rounded area of land surrounded by water.
Hirosaki Castle sits near the center of those grounds. Set a waypoint on one of the roads or bridges leading into the property, then drive toward the main castle building.
The castle is easy to recognize once you arrive. Look for the traditional multi-level Japanese structure surrounded by stone walls, water, and cherry trees.
How to Complete the #ClassyCastle Photo Challenge
You need to use a vehicle from the Classic Sports Cars category. The car does not need to be Italian, upgraded, or set to a particular performance class.
Follow these steps:
- Change into any Classic Sports Car.
- Drive to Hirosaki Castle in the Takashiro Region.
- Park where your car and the castle are both visible.
- Open Photo Mode.
- Adjust the camera until the full vehicle and part of the castle appear in frame.
- Take the picture and wait for the challenge confirmation.
The default Photo Mode input is Up on the D-pad when using a controller or P on a keyboard, unless you changed the control settings.
Winter roads can make the drive to Hirosaki Castle slippery, especially in a rear-wheel-drive Classic Sports Car. Our guide on how to equip snow tires in Forza Horizon 6 explains how to improve traction before heading to the castle.
What is the #ClassyCastle Reward?
Completing the Hirosaki Castle Photo Challenge unlocks the White Suit clothing item and adds progress toward the Winter Festival Playlist.
If the photo does not count, move closer to the castle and pull the camera farther back. The game must recognize both your Classic Sports Car and Hirosaki Castle in the same image.
Also confirm that your selected vehicle belongs to the Classic Sports Cars category. A Retro Sports Car or Modern Sports Car may look appropriate but will not satisfy the challenge.
