*''Japanese'': 聚楽第 ''(jurakudai)''
The Jurakudai was a lavish [[Kyoto]] mansion built by [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]] in [[1586]], who made it his residence the following year. The Jurakudai later became the residence of his nephew [[Toyotomi Hidetsugu]] and was dismantled in [[1595]] following Hidetsugu's death.
The mansion was lavishly decorated, with paintings by many of the greatest artists of the day, including [[Hasegawa Tohaku|Hasegawa Tôhaku]], [[Kano Eitoku|Kanô Eitoku]], and [[Kano Mitsunobu|Kanô Mitsunobu]], and was one of several locations of Hideyoshi's golden tea room.
Hideyoshi took up residence at the Jurakudai on [[1587]]/9/13, and
Hideyoshi formally received [[Emperor Go-Yozei|Emperor Go-Yôzei]] at the mansion in [[1588]].
Hidetsugu took up residence at the Jurakudai in [[1592]], and officially received Emperor Go-Yôzei there again the same year. Hidetsugu was forced by his uncle to commit suicide in 1595. Following his death, the mansion was dismantled. Many elements of the mansion survive today at other sites; one of its buildings is now the ''[[hojo|hôjô]]'' (abbot's quarters) at [[Daitoku-ji]], while gates from the Jurakudai survive at Daitoku-ji, [[Nishi Honganji]], and [[Myokaku-ji|Myôkaku-ji]]. One of the mansion's foundation stones is at [[Ryogen-in|Ryôgen-in]] today.
