A castle located in Kyoto's Fushimi Ward and built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in 1592 - 1594 to be his retirement palace, Fushimi Castle was particularly famous for its gold leave-covered Golden Tea Room. It was destroyed by earthquake only two years after its completion, but was soon reconstructed and came under the control of Tokugawa Ieyasu vassal Torii Mototada.
