CONTENTS
Within Nijo-jo Castle lie the memories of the Kan’ei Imperial Visit.
The sakura trees, planted long ago and now part of the castle’s soul, awaken those memories as they burst into bloom.
Tonight, together with the blossoming sakura, the echoes of the imperial visit rise once more.
A dedicated space for the immersive theater experience “Shiro Geki.”
Surrounded by imagery and sound, you are gently guided into the era of the Kan’ei Imperial Visit.
