Nijō Park — Attraction in Kyoto

Please be aware there are 3 tickets; 800yen (Outside only) 1600yen (Outside and inside the temple. As well as 1000yen [Online Only] ticket, which is limited for the private quarters of the Shogun.

We weren't aware at the time, though thankfully got the 1600yen ($16AUD) ticket. Good viewing and occasionally there are English tour guides available (at additional cost)

Would advise looking online prior to attending to see what options are...

A medium-sized park right beside Nijo-jo. Not too many for sightseeing or photograph. More like a local one where kids can play around with swings and so on. Some play ground available if you want to play football or baseball. Really nice to visit around...
