Kyōto Gosho
Kyōto Gosho submitted by Aska : Site in Honshū Japan (Vote or comment on this photo)
“Go-sho” literally means ‘The Place’ (not ‘Palace’) and implies the residence of the Emperor. It had moved from original (since 794 CE) place 2km away westward in 1331 during the conflict of the northern and the southern imperial courts and the emperors of the northern court lived here until 1869. The buildings inside were reconstructed in 1855. It also contains fine pond or rock gardens and courtyards.

For a long time the admission to the site had been troublesome like other imperial villas’, since 2016 the application has eased to unnecessary.
Open 9:00-17:00 (closing time moves up in autumn and winter), closed on Monday and day around the new years day. Admission free.
