A gentle sunset reflects on the rails of the ancient Imperial Audience Hall.Once upon a time Nara had been the capital of Japan for a short period、from 710 to 784. Imperial Audience Hall was the center of the capital. Here the emperors reigned over Japan. The hall was rebuilt in 2010.
The Capital was called "Heijo-kyo" whose Palace Site is designated as World Heritage Site. This place is my favorite and especially I love viewing a sunset from here.
Beautiful captures, gorgeous reflections and colors! A very lovely and interesting post for the day as always! And thank you, as always, for your visit and comment! Have a lovely weekend!
