The Honmaru Palace of Nagoya Castle is a true masterpiece of traditional Japanese architecture and craftsmanship. Reconstructed with meticulous care using original techniques and materials, the palace offers a rare glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of feudal lords during the Edo period. Walking through the elegant tatami rooms, you’re greeted by breathtaking gold-leaf screens, hand-painted sliding doors, and intricate wooden carvings that reflect the grandeur of the Owari Tokugawa clan. The atmosphere is peaceful and deeply respectful of history. Every corner feels like stepping into a living museum. It’s amazing to see how much effort has been put into authenticity. Whether you’re a history buff or simply curious, the Honmaru Palace is an unforgettable and enriching experience, well worth the visit.

I have been here few times in few years, if you just visiting Nagoya, go first to Honmaru Castle. Restored wooden palace is such an amazing place to visit, such a great experience. I think it is really an architectural marvel. The whole castle complex is worth visiting, go there in the morning preferably on a weekday, there is seasonal exhibitions take place. Like in the Autumn, different exhibitions for flowers, or Bonsai trees, etc. Walk around and enjoy this great place. There is place to rest if it's too hot outside and some nice little cafe and restaurants around the castle.

This is a newly built reconstruction of a palace that burnt down during WWII. The craftsmanship is remarkable, although it feels bizarre to be walking in this brand-new old palace. Going through the complex maze of rooms gives a good impression of how the games of power were played out in this Edo court. Entrance is included in the 500 yen entrance to the castle complex. Beware that access to the palace requires to remove and stow your shoes.
