Want to get a taste of the life of the wealthiest people in Japan? A tour around the Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens will give a glimpse into such a life of glamor. Nestled in the quiet neighborhood of Daito-ku, the small castle that once belonged to the family who owned one of Japan’s largest corporate conglomerates is preserved as a cultural landmark of Japan. The family no longer resides in the glamorous European-style castle, and the structure is now opened to the public for a tour - one that will make you feel as though you are in F.Scott Fitzgerald’s world of opulence and extravagance.
