The Sentō Gosho is the second imperial property located within the Kyoto Imperial Palace Park (the other one is the Imperial Palace itself).

Admission is by one-hour tour only (in Japanese; English audio guides are free of charge). You must be over 18 years old and you will need to bring your passport for ID.
