Most of the palace <strong>is closed to the public.<\/strong> In principle, only the Ostgarten, formerly the site of the mighty castle of Edo, is accessible. Some parts of the inner palace grounds are only accessible on two days a year without prior notice: the Emperor&#8217;s birthday (23 December) and New Year&#8217;s Day (2 January).<\/p>\n<div class=\"zitat\">Update 2016: For the few guided tours of the Imperial Palace, registrations were required in advance.
