Kyōto Imperial Palace is the former palace of the Emperor of Japan, situated in 3 Kyotogyoen, Kamigyo Ward, Kyoto, 602-0881, Japan.A massive palace complex with majestic Japanese traditional architecture, intricate gardens and huge courtyards. Its offers a truly enchanting experience that seamlessly combines history and natural beauty.
The Kyoto Imperial Palace is the residence of the Japanese emperor in the Shofu era, and compared to the Forbidden City of the Chinese emperor, it is small but exquisite and has its own style and characteristics. The emperor at that time had no actual right to govern the country, only symbolic status, so there was no huge auxiliary system, and no huge harem.
Going to Kyoto Imperial Palace, taking the road that the previous people took, the cherry blossoms in April are still in full bloom, how difficult the small stone road was before, after the visit, I am glad that I was born and do not need to do so many stone roads now. 🤣
It is an ordinary Japanese-style building and Japanese-style courtyard. If you are going to go to Nijo City, there is no need to go. This imperial palace and Nijo City are all a wave of artificial. The building and the courtyard are extremely similar. It is not worth a trip. It is quite tired to run.
Kyoto Imperial Palace is the dormitory of the Emperor of Kyoto, Japan. It is located in the downtown area of Kyoto, Shangjing District. Originally built as the second palace of the Emperor, it was mainly used for residence from 1331 to 1868. With the decline of the shogunate and the reign of the Mikado, the new palace moved to Tokyo. As the dormitory before the Emperor of Japan, there is no ticket required for the visit, just take your passport to the administrative office for registration. Entering the imperial palace, there are special guides to explain. This is to promote Japanese culture and history to the outside world. By contrast, the high-priced tickets to the Beijing Palace Museum will make many people who yearn for Chinese culture feel a little unhappy.
