EDOJO

Serving as the residence of the fifteen Tokugawa shoguns, Edojo was a symbol of the prosperity of the shogunate during the Edo Period. In this exhibition we have attempted to reproduce Edojo as it once was, but despite the fact that it is often depicted in novels and in period dramas and films, much about how it actually appeared remains a mystery.
Based on our study of historical maps and documents, as well as other buildings constructed around the same time, we have reproduced Edojo using high-precision computer graphics. In particular, the highlights of the exhibition are our recreations of the Honmaru Goten, known for its inner palace for the Shogun’s ladies-in-waiting and its Great Pine Corridor, and the keep with Mount Fuji in the background. Experience Edojo as it was in days gone by…
