Kyoto Gosho (Imperial Palace)
[The Palace retains the graceful and sophisticated atmosphere of court life in ancient times.]
Burned down several times since the Heian Period. Most recently rebuilt in 1855, but still preserves the refined image recalling Heian Period Shishinden. Open to the general public for 5 days every Spring and Fall. Permission must be obtained in advance for other days from the Imperial Household Agency's Kyoto Office.
