The site of Ieyasu’s grave also has an amazing hidden-gem museum that far too many visitors skip.
Tokugawa
Ninja and samurai duel inside the centuries-old “Temple of the Shogun” in Aichi Prefecture.
Historically accurate replicas of samurai helmets and armour will soon be coming to vending machines at castles around the country.
In an era of executions and forced suicides, this is one presentation you wouldn’t want to doze off in.
Yasuhisa Tokugawa is a descendant of the Tokugawa family consisting of the legendary Shoguns such Ieyasu Tokugawa. Yasuhisa, now 64, had a successful career in the oil business from which he retired.
Now he’s doing what you’d probably expect a retired business man to do: he became the head priest of the most controversial shrine in Japan.
