National Treasures / Buildings

For visiting some areas of the State Guest House, advance application is required to obtain "visit-certificate" for entry. For detailed information, see below.
(Note:
There is the other State Guest House in Kyoto, so please bear it in mind not to visit a wrong Guest House. The Kyoto one is also nice, but not designated as National Treasure, and in contrast to the State Guest House, Akasaka Palace, is more in a Japanese style and rather new, completed in 2005.)
