Kyoto Imperial Palace Park
 

Description

Located right in the heart of the city, the Imperial Palace Park contains the buildings of the Imperial Palace. With its wide expanses of grass and small copses of trees, the park provides a welcome refuge of green and fresh air away from the busy streets outside. The bullet holes on Hamagurimon Gate on the western side of the park is a reminder of Kyoto's often violent past.

The \"Living\" Castle
By ,
The outside courtyard doens't seem to have anything in winter, but the inside is absolutly beautiful. Mind you, it is still being used by the royal family as a residence occassionally! The english tour is quite good since the tour guide does know english pretty well and able to answer most of the questions. But please remember to bring your passport and book inadvance at the park's office.

Step back in time
By ,
Everytime I set foot in this park, I felt like I was stepping back in time. Although its not as grand as you would expect for an imperial palace park, it is worth a stroll through. On the south side is a beautiful pond, bridge and shrine hidden in the trees. I also recommend getting around it by bicylce. The palace ground walls are quite impressive too.
