The Sentō Palace (Japanese仙洞御所, Sentō Gosho) is a palace and garden complex within the Imperial Park in Kyoto (京都御苑, Kyōto Gyoen). The garden, like the gardens of the two imperial villas Katsura and Shugakuin, is accessible upon application to the Imperial Court Office, Kyoto Office.

The »Sento Imperial Palace« is a second palace complex opposite the »Kyoto Imperial Palace«. It was built in 1630 as a retirement home for Emperor Gomizuno.

The original palace buildings burned down in 1854 and were not rebuilt. Instead, the Omiya Palace was built in 1867 on the Sento grounds and today serves as accommodation for the present prince and the present princess during their visits to Kyoto.

From 1331 to 1869, the Gosho was the seat of the Japanese Imperial Family and, if only briefly, the center of politics, at least continuously the center of all sorts of court stories and intrigues. Until 1869, the area of today's Gyoen Park was home to both the imperial palace and the houses of aristocratic society.
