Jūrakudai was built as Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Kyoto residence in Uchino (the former site of the Heian-kyō Imperial Palace). Hideyoshi, after being appointed Kampaku (chief advisor to the Emperor) in 1585 (Tenshō 13), began construction of Jūrakudai the following year, and it was completed in 1587 (Tenshō 15). Jūraku means "to gather (atsu) the enjoyment of longevity and immortality." It is also read as "Jūrakutei." The structure of Jūrakudai is thought to have had its outer walls encompassing Motogangendōri to the north, Horikawa-dōri to the east, Oshikōji-dōri to the south, and Senbon-dōri to the west. Within the outer walls, the inner walls were thought to have included the Honmaru (main enclosure) at the center, with the Kitanomaru, Minamininomaru, and Nishinomaru enclosures. However, it was thoroughly destroyed, and a comprehensive excavation survey is impossible, so the exact boundaries are unknown. In 1595 (Bunroku 4), Hidetsugu was banished on suspicion of rebellion, and Jūrakudai was also demolished. The Karamon gate of Daitoku-ji Temple and the Omote-mon gate of Myōkaku-ji Temple remain as relics.
