A faithful reconstruction of a Heian period building that would have been home to the Saio, an imperial princess/priestess who lived at this location during the Heian period. Wearing of a Heian imperial kimono is available 2 times a day by appointment. This kimono weighs 10kg, has 12 colourful silk layers and is stuningly beautiful.
