Visiting Kyoto could be an overwhelming experience for you, as you can experience the ancient Japanese way of harmony.
This time, I would like to introduce a 4K Virtual Walking Tour of Nijo Castle, which competes for the top spot on the popularity ranking among the most popular tourist destinations in Kyoto, Japan.
Nijo Castle was built in 1603 by Tokugawa Ieyasu, the first shogun of the Edo Shogunate, to protect the Kyoto Imperial Palace, where the Emperor resided, and as a place to stay when the Shogun went to Kyoto.
In 1867, the 15th shogun, Yoshinobu, announced his intention to return the government to Japan in the hall of the Ninomaru Palace in Nijo Castle, which is very famous in Japanese history.
Nijo Castle is also famous as a popular spot for school excursions for Japanese students.
It was the stage for the beginning and end of the Edo Shogunate.
The three gardens, the Ninomaru Garden from the Edo period, the Honmaru Garden built in the Meiji period, and the Seiryuen Garden created in the Showa period, are Japanese garden view spots that should not be missed.
