－Itinerary introduction－

• Nijo Castle was built in the early Edo period (1603). It is a flat castle located in Nijo Castle Town, Nakakyo District, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. It was once the residence of Tokugawa Ieyasu. In 1994, it was listed as one of the cultural properties of the ancient capital Kyoto as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. In a narrow sense, Nijo Castle refers to the castle built in the Edo period, but in a broad sense, it refers to the castle that was the residence of the 13th Muromachi shogun Ashikaga Yoshiteru and the castle built by Oda Nobunaga for the 15th generation shogun Ashikaga Yoshiaki. In 1573, Oda Nobunaga raised his troops and exiled Ashikaga Yoshiaki to Hanoi. The city was burned down, and another Nijo Imperial Palace was built elsewhere, which was later dedicated to the crown prince. In 1867 (the 3rd year of Keio), the fifteenth shogun Tokugawa Yoshihiro held a "return of great power" ceremony in Nijo Castle and returned the power to the emperor, making Nijo Castle famous. In 1939, the emperor gave it to the Imperial Household Ministry, and the following year it was renamed "Moto-rikyu Nijo Castle" and officially opened to the public.

  
  

• Kyoto Gyoen National Garden is located in National Park in Kamikyo-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture. After Japan moved the capital to Tokyo in 1869 (Meiji 2), the royal family also moved to Tokyo with the royal family, which also caused many public residences around the Kyoto Imperial Palace to be vacant and abandoned. Emperor Meiji felt this and ordered the imperial palace to be preserved in 1877 (Meiji 10th year). In order to prevent the Imperial Palace from being destroyed when a fire broke out in the urban area of ​​Kyoto, the Kyoto Prefectural Government demolished the unused former public residences around the Kyoto Imperial Palace and reorganized the environment, thus creating the scale of the Kyoto Imperial Garden today. In 1949 (Showa 24), Kyoto Gyoen National Garden became a national park and opened to the public. Every spring, the blooming cherry blossoms attract a large number of tourists.

  
  

• Yasaka Shrine There are approximately 3,000 Yasaka Shrines throughout Japan, among which the main one in Kyoto is the main one. Because it is located in Gion, it is also known as Gion Shrine. The main shrine is located in Higashiyama District, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. It was the 22nd shrine, and the old shrine was Kanmo Taisha (currently the Byoteo Shrine of the main shrine). The main headquarters Gion Matsuri is one of the largest festivals in Japan, attracting many people every year to participate in the event. At the same time, Yasaka Shrine is also one of the most popular shrines in Kyoto.
