A stunning cultural treasure — The palace is built within rammed-earth walls (tsuijibei) and has served as the imperial residence for more than 500 years! Centuries of architectural transitions can be observed through the several distinctive buildings inside the complex including the Okurumayose, Shodaibu-no-Ma, Shinmikurumayose, Shishinden, Seiryoden, Kogosho,Oikeniwa, Ogakumonjo, Otsunegoten, Gonaitei, Kogogu Tsunegoten, higyosha, Genkimon Gate, Sakuheimon Gate, Wakamiya/Himemiya Goten. Apparently, November is the only month open to visitors, hence extremely crowded.
