Japanese castle keeps were not for living, they had no furniture, they were safe rooms in times of conflict. Instead, the nobles lived in villas on the castle grounds, which are furnished.

Fun facts ftom Japanese🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵 Most Japanese people also commented that they would like to see the exhibits in a form closer to the way people lived in those days, so I think this kind of feeling is common all over the world, but it is very difficult to display furniture and furnishings as they were in those days, because humidity is the biggest enemy of Japanese traditional furniture, ornaments, and books. It is very difficult to display (leave uncovered) furniture and furnishings as they were when people lived in those days. This is something that is repeatedly said on Japanese TV programs where Japanese history and archaeology are discussed: "I think it would probably be difficult for Europeans, where the air is very dry, to imagine how fast things decay and rust in Japan." says a Japanese expert. Therefore, as a Japanese, if you are a traveler to Japan from overseas, you might say, "I want to go back in time to the 1600s (just before Japan started its isolation). I want to feel Japan as it was then. If you want to feel Japan as it was in the 1600s, the best place to go is to visit the Ninomaru Palace at Nijo Castle in Kyoto, which was built 13 years before the start of Japan's national isolation. The furniture and furnishings are in a museum on the same site, but the interior and exterior of the palace, as well as the gardens, are exceptionally well maintained as they were in 1626, and especially the interior of the Ninomaru Palace is almost completely frozen in time as it was 397 years ago. The ceiling and walls are particularly impressive. You will be able to understand the color sense and design of the people of that time.
