KYOTO IMPERIAL PALACE | Kyoto Japan

The Kyoto Imperial palace was the residence of the Japanese emperors until 1869. Founded in the 8th Century the Emperor Kanmu moved the capital from Heijo-Kyo (Nara) to Nagaoka-kyo in 784, and then to Heian-kyo (KYOTO) in 794AD. Really no way to describe the fortress and the immensity. Its a wall rectangle measuring 450m North to South and 250M from East to West. Enjoy!
