    Discover the historical significance of Edo Castle remains with your personal guide. Located next to the Imperial Palace, the East Gardens is where the largest castle in Japan once stood. From this very site, the shogun governed Edo—now Tokyo—and helped shape it into one of Japan’s most important cities. The Edo period, led by the Tokugawa shogunate, lasted for 260 years and brought peace and stability to the country. Today, the remains of the castle reveal its impressive defensive system, including moats, turrets, and massive stone walls that continue to stand as a reminder of its historical significance. - Two-hour guided private walking tour by a Japanese guide - Walk through the original site of Japan’s largest castle - Learn how the Tokugawa shoguns shaped the development of Edo - Explore defensive structures such as moats, yagura turrets, and stone walls - Hear stories from the 260-year Edo period and discover what the remaining structures tell us today
