Description
- Although it was originally built as a residence for the Emperor, it was too ornate and unfit for residence, so it was eventually turned into a facility to welcome important people.
- Anyone can visit, but it is divided into 4 courses, all of which require a fee.
- Reservations are not required for the “”Main Building, Garden”” and “”Garden,”” but reservations are required for the “”Japanese Style Annex, Main Building, Garden”” and “”Japanese Style Annex, Garden”” as they are accompanied by a guide.

You can walk around the garden at your leisure and see food trucks, but the main building is crowded and there are few rest areas.

The main attraction is the architecture and interior of the main building, so it may be difficult for children.

As a date spot, it seems a bit formal and not busy.
“Getting along with friends” Recommendation level: 3 /4 points
It may be fun if you are with close friends.
