Ancient Japanese Palace Site

'Fujiwara-no-miya'
Yumiko sent me this card showing the site of the
ancient Fujiwara-no-Miya, a Chinese-style
palace. It was an Imperial palace, although the
Emperor did not reside there.
Fujiwara-kyo, in Yamato Province,
was the capital city of Japan from 694 to 710.
Thank you, Yumiko, for the interesting card!
