How Baby-Friendly is Honmaru Palace?
What makes it 29% Baby-Friendly: Infants are not barred, but no diapers, nursing rooms, or strollers are allowed inside; low light and silence demands force parents to exit for every change, so visits are cumbersome.
Positives:
- Stroller loan available: Borrow a free stroller on a first-come basis at the Main or East Gate.
- Barrier-free restrooms: Multi-function toilets with diaper-changing tables are on the castle grounds.
Challenges:
- No baby facilities inside palace: The palace has no toilets, sinks, or nursing rooms inside.
