During the Nara and Heian periods, this expansive site served as the political and diplomatic heart of Kyushu, projecting the imperial court's power through stately gates and vermilion-painted halls. Today, massive foundation stones scattered across lush, open parkland outline the impressive symmetrical grid of the ancient headquarters. It offers a tranquil escape where history enthusiasts can stroll peacefully and imagine the bustling court life of over a millennium ago.
