大極殿跡（案内板）

We will post the virtual Daigokuden.

A house has already been built on the site ? Is it the entrance to Taikyokuden ?

The fire is unlucky, but the historic sites that do not remain are lonely. Could it have been left without the war? Fujiwara, Heike, Genji, Hojo, Ashikaga, I'm convinced even if it's called the Dark Ages.

The magnificent one with the stone monument is due to an incorrect survey during the Meiji era, and this seems to be a correct historic site. When I actually went there, the sidewalk had a simple finish with "Daigokuden Ruins". The gap with the historical fact that it is a place for national ceremonies is interesting.

Guide plate: The ruins of Daigokuden The Daigokuden, the main hall of the Chodoin, which is the most important facility in Heiangu, was completed in the 14th year of the Enryaku calendar (795), the year after the relocation of the capital to Heian. In addition to the emperor's inauguration ceremony, important national events such as Choga and Gosaiai held on the New Year and an audience with foreign envoys were held here. In Konin 6 (815), more than 19,800 officials were mobilized from rural areas to carry out major repairs, and it is probable that green glazed roof tiles were used for the roof for the first time. After that, it was destroyed by fire on April 16, 876, in the middle of the night. It was rebuilt (second) in October of the 3rd year of Gangyo (879), but a fire broke out again on February 26 of the 1st year of Kohei (1058), leaving the Otenmon gate and the tower on the left. Furthermore, Daigokuden, which was rebuilt (third) on April 15, 1072, was burnt down on April 28, 1177, and has not been rebuilt since then. The Taikyokuden at the beginning of its construction is thought to be a hipped roof between 11 east-west and 4 north-south, and the size of the platform is estimated to be 59 m east-west and 24 m north-south. It was a magnificent building with (shibi) on it and the eaves and ridge were bordered by bright green glazed roof tiles. Until recently, the location of Daigokuden was estimated to be near the north of the Senbonmarutamachi intersection, but recent excavations found several buildings inside the Chodoin, and it was the first time in 1994, 1200 years after the city was built. The ruins of the foundation of Daigokuden were confirmed 0.6m below the surface of the earth, and its position is now almost clear.
