Nara Palace is known as Heijo-Kyu among most of Japanese people. It was an imperial residence in Japanese capital city Heijo-Kyo (Today's Nara). And the period in which the capital city was placed in Nara is called Nara period.
Today, there is a few structures remaining and keeping their original appearance. Above photograph is of its entrance gate called Suzak-mon. Its color and design represents the influence of Chinese Buddhist temple. In those days, Japanese culture was under the strong influence of Chines and Korean peninsula's it.
The photo below is Daiichi -Daigokuden, a national palace of the administration in those days, and its height is eighty meters from the ground level. Although existing one is a restored model, it could be said as the most attractive structure in the park.
While Nara is now known as one of the rural prefectures in Japan which boasts deers and giant statue of buddha, it still is a historically valuable town along with Kyoto. Since Nara, however, is more ancient than Kyoto, there is not so many historical places or architectures as in Kyoto.
