Ideal for picnics, walking or jogging the Imperial Palace Park located right in the heart of the city contains the buildings of the Imperial Palace. With its wide expanses of grass and small copses of trees, the park provides a welcome refuge of green and fresh air away from the busy streets outside. Look for the bullet holes on Hamagurimon Gate on the western side of the park, a reminder of Kyoto's often violent past.
