商品説明
Explore Nijo Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, on an intimate small-group tour limited to up to 10 people, led by a knowledgeable local guide. Enjoy a more personal and engaging experience with plenty of opportunities to ask questions and interact.
Meet your guide outside Exit 1 of Nijōjō-mae Station and begin your walk through spaces designed not for defense, but for display, intimidation, and silent control, reflecting the shogun’s strategy to dominate without war.
Learn why the Tokugawa shoguns, ruling from distant Edo (now Tokyo), constructed a lavish palace just steps from the Emperor’s residence, asserting their authority even in the heart of Kyoto.
Walk through the Ninomaru Palace, where room size, floor height, and decoration reflected strict social hierarchy. Hear the famous nightingale floors chirp beneath your feet to expose intruders, and observe the layered corridors and gates designed to psychologically overwhelm visitors.
Stand in the very room where, in 1867, Tokugawa Yoshinobu returned authority to the Emperor, ending over 260 years of shogunate rule and ushering in the Meiji Restoration.
