For 1,000 years, from the time when the Japanese royal family moved from Nara to Heian-kyo (today's Kyoto) until Emperor Meiji moved the capital to Tokyo in 1868, this was the Imperial Residence (Rainbow) of Japan. The entire Kyoto Imperial Palace area is like a large park (rainbow). It is filled with cedars and other vegetation🌳, and there are multiple doors around it for free entry and exit.

Only the strong branches of cedar can be seen outside. The Imperial Palace does not require reservation now😆, you can enter directly when it is open visit. The day I arrived happened to be a regular holiday and I couldn't go inside, so I ended up walking around outside. I first visited Honnōji Temple (location) that day. After collecting the royal seals of Honnōji Temple, I passed Teramachi Street to the south entrance of the Imperial Palace. There are many shops selling used books on Teramachi Dori Street. Most of the operators are elderly people. The ancient books are sorted, labeled, and placed on the shelves in categories.
