The Kyoto Imperial Palace used to be the home of Japan's Imperial Family until 1868 when they moved to Tokyo. Located in the beautiful Kyoto Imperial Park, the palace is surrounded by walls and features gates, halls, and gardens. Visitors can now explore the grounds without a tour reservation and enjoy the historic buildings and scenic surroundings. Don't miss the weeping cherry trees by Konoe Pond in spring!
