"château de Nijo qui servira de résidence fortifiée aux nombreux héritiers de sa dynastie lors de leurs visites à Kyoto. Près de trois siècles plus tard, Tokugawa Yoshinobu, dernier du nom, rendra ses pouvoirs à l’empereur Meiji dans ce même palais, mettant fin à la dictature militaire."

"Nijo Castle (二条城, Nijōjō) was built in 1603 as the Kyoto residence of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the first shogun of the Edo Period (1603-1867). His grandson Iemitsu completed the castle's palace buildings 23 years later and further expanded the castle by adding a five story castle keep. After the Tokugawa Shogunate fell in 1867, Nijo Castle was used as an imperial palace for a while before being donated to the city and opened up to the public as a historic site. Its palace buildings are arguably the best surviving examples of castle palace architecture of Japan's feudal era, and the castle was designated a UNESCO world heritage site in 1994. Nijo Castle can be divided into three areas: the Honmaru (main circle of defense), the Ninomaru (secondary circle of defense) and some gardens around them. The entire castle grounds and the Honmaru are surrounded by stone walls and moats."

"One of the most popular Kyoto places to go is Nijo Castle. Built in 1603, the Nijo Castle was once the residence of Tokugawa leyasu, the very first shogun of the Edo Period. After the end of the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1867, the Nijo Castle was used as an imperial palace before being opened to the public as a historical site. The castle is now a UNESCO World Heritage site and is a great place to take the family to learn what life was like during this period. There are many buildings and gardens to explore within the castle grounds. The main attraction is the Ninomaru Palace, which was the residence of the shogun whenever he visited Kyoto. The palace is made up of multiple rooms, which are joined by long corridors and the rooms are decorated with paintings as well as some statues set up to depict life in the castle. It’s also worth exploring the gardens too. You can walk over the bridge through the inner moat to the Honmaru Palace. This palace was destroyed by fire and never rebuilt, but it’s still cool to climb up the stone wall and see the view across the castle grounds. If you happen to visit during Cherry Blossom season through late March and April – this is a great place to come as there are over 400 cherry trees here. Price: Adults ¥1300 (approx. AUD $14) | Under 6 free Nijo Castle is open from 8.45 am until 5 pm. Admission closes 1 hour prior to closing time. The Ninomaru Palace opens from 9 am until 4 pm. https://www.2aussietravellers.com/nijo-castle/"

"Nijo-jo (jo signifie « château », en plein coeur de Kyoto, parc à vélo à proximité payant, 200¥ pour 2h soit 1€60, 8h45 – 16h, entrée 1000¥ soit 8€), il est réputé pour son parquet « rossignol » dans les couloirs. On l’appelle ainsi car lorsqu’on marche dessus, cela émet un petit bruit qui évite que l’on se fasse attaquer par surprise. On y découvre aussi de très beaux panneaux en bois peints et des jardins japonais…"

"UNESCO World Heritage Lavishly decorated, Nijo-jo was the symbol of the authority of the Tokugawa shogunate founded by Tokugawa leyasu in the sixteenth century. In 1603, after the victory at the Battie of Sekiganara — a decisive battle that ended more than a century of constant warfare in Japan — Nijo-jo was built as leyasu's official Kyoto residence when he received the title of shogun fram the emperor, Although officially called a castie, Nio-jo was a fortified palace rather than a palatial castle and it served as the headquarters of the shögunate in western Japan. The ostentatious display ofwealth and power embodied in its architecture and omamentation was a strong political statement, antithetical to the refined tastes of the imperial nobility of Kyoto, When the last Tokugawa shogun returned sovereignty to the emperor at Nijo-jo in 1867, the castle was also given to the imperial institution and renamed Nijo Detached Palace in 1884. Expanded to its present size by the third Tokugawa shögun lemitsu in 1626, Nijo-jo is a large, elaborate complex consisting of two compounds with separate palaces, Honmatu and Ninomaru, each with a number of buildings and gardens. The original buildings of the Honmaru Palace were destroyed by fire in 1750, and the current structure was transferred from the Kyoto imperial Palace in 1893. The Ninomaru Palace is laid out in a diagonal configuration along the pond in the Ninomary Garden, which includes three islands and a three-tered waterfall. One of the unique features of the palace is the "nightingale floors” in the corridors, constructed so that they would squeak like birds when intruders walked upon them. Many of the sliding doors and walls at Nijojo were painted by famous Kano school artists. Nijo-jo is included on the UNESCO list of World Heritage Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto."

"Château énorme au sein de Kyoto. Les jardins sont très sympas. il est possible de visiter l'ancienne demeure du shogun pour observer les murs brodés (et uniquement ça, il n'y a rien d'autres dans la demeure). Sympa pour se balader dans les jardins si il fait beau et sans trop de monde, un peu cher pour ce que c'est sinon (1100 yens)"
