🟦Takashi:
“Especially Shishin-den—it was used for enthronement ceremonies. The cypress bark roof and the vermilion pillars are just beautiful.”

🟦Takashi:
“Exactly. Cultural heritage sites often feel intimidating, but Kyoto makes them so accessible. That’s one of its strengths.”

🟪Otoha:
“Walking through the palace grounds, I really feel Japan’s history is still alive here. So, where shall we go next?”

🟦Takashi:
“How about the Sento Imperial Palace next? It was the residence for retired emperors. Our historical journey has only just begun.”
