Following the last time, I introduce summer Kyoto with the keyword "green".

This time, I introduce Kyoto Imperial Palace・Kyoto State Guest House which are open to the public throughout the year from this summer.


First, this is Kyoto Imperial Palace.

Many big pine trees which are cared for very neatly and magnificent buildings greets you one after another.

In the past, pine was a symbol of the power. Therefore, a lot of pines are planted.

Dark green in midsummer has a quite impact.

Next, is Kyoto State Guest House which is adjacent in the same site.


The buildings and garden are designed quite elaborate to detail.

On the other hand, these show you very Japanese-style, simple and modern beauty.


This is a ceiling lighting of japanese wisteria room (Fuji-no-ma) where dinners are carried out.

The craftsman's work is so splendid...

This landscape is a masterpiece.

It is the splendid garden which seems to appear in the textbook of Japanese garden.

In the future, this place will become a popular tourist destination surely.
