The Nara Hotel behind the Daijo-in Garden.

Daijo-in was a Buddhist temple. It had a strong influence with head priests from the imperial family or powerful clan in the medieval time. The temple itself was closed in 1869, by the anti-Buddhist policy of Meiji reformation government.

Nara Hotel was founded at the site of the temple in 1909. The half-Westernized Japanese style main building is existing since opening.

nakamouraさんへ

こんばんわ！
この風景は私も見ました。ホテル側からですけど。
丁度、このように赤い橋が水面に見事に反射しているのと、鶴らしき野鳥がいたのが印象に残っています。中に入りたかったのですが柵で閉ざされていたのが残念でした。
