Itinerary
Your experience begins at Sengoku no Niwa, the former retirement residence of a feudal lord. Though the original building no longer stands, the site has been carefully excavated and preserved to reflect its historical atmosphere. Managed with attention to its past, it offers a rare and authentic setting for dressing in replica armor and capturing unforgettable photos and videos.
Once suited up, you’ll enjoy photo sessions both within the museum space and around the outdoor grounds. With no modern structures in sight, the location provides a cinematic backdrop that feels timeless. Its historical depth aside, it’s also simply a fun and memorable place to explore.
