Fatos rápidos: Over 800 carp swim in the castle's moats, creating a serene, living artwork that changes with the seasons. Nightingale floors squeak purposely to alert guards of approaching footsteps, blending security with architectural art.
Destaques: Step onto the nightingale floors to hear the unique chirping underfoot, a clever security feature from the shogun era. Imagine wandering through over 300 rooms filled with vibrant Edo-period paintings, each telling stories of Japan’s past.
