The Shogun of the Tokugawa Bakufu lived in Edo Castle.
Tokugawa was not a religion. The Tokugawa was a family dynasty of shoguns commencing with Ieyasu Tokugawa being invested as Shogun on the 2nd of December, 1603.
No, a shogun and a shogunate are not the same. A shogun is a military leader or general in Japan, historically the de facto ruler of the country, while a shogunate refers to the government or administration led by a shogun. The shogunate represents the institutional framework that governs Japan under a shogun's authority, such as the Kamakura or Tokugawa shogunate.

A bakufu, or Shogunate. This was a military-led government run by a Shogun. Towards the end of the Edo (Tokugawa) period, Japan was controlled by what is known as a Bakuhan system.
