The castle was built in the early 1600s to function as the residence of Tokugawa Ieyasu - the founder and first shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate of Japan - who demanded every feudal lord in Western Japan to contribute to the construction of the castle. Nijo Castle stretches across an area of 275,000 square meters and features fortification rings, the Ninomaru Palace and the Honmaru Palace ruins, in addition to a number of other buildings and gardens.
