Ashikaga Shogunate - Palace Remains

Palace Remains

The residence of "Hana no Gosho" (花の御所) or "Flower Palace" was located on the block now bounded by Karasuma Street (to the east), Imadegawa Street (to the south), Muromachi Street (to the west, giving the name), and Kamitachiuri Street (to the north). The location is commemorated by a stone marker at the southwest corner, and the Kanbai-kan (寒梅館?, Winter Plum Hall) of Dōshisha University contains relics and excavations of the area.

Famous quotes containing the words palace and/or remains:

    You weep, you weep for the sun an Image.
    ...
    the wind calls hideously,
    woe for the children’s fate,
    woe for a palace rent,
    woe, woe for these who spent
    life-blood
    in hate.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Nothing stands out so conspicuously, or remains so firmly fixed in the memory, as something which you have blundered.
