Gepparou
We are in the final part of the walk in Katsura Imperial Villa. Let's go to the last building.
It is a stone path leads to Gepparou.
It is such a luxury to walk slowly on the stone path in the spacious area.
I was feelingly impressed.
It is Shokin-Tei seen over the lake from Gepparou.
The elegant presence makes it stand out.
It is the Japanese beauty.
It is the inside ceiling and it looks like a ship bottom.
It gave me an odd feeling since it is a ceiling but actually is a ship bottom.
You can enjoy tea in Gepparou. There is a tea place to enjoy at the velanda.
Gepparou
A teaplace at the top of the pond near Old shoin, which has a wide dirt floor.
It is located in the right place to look at the moon and it has an elegant name "Gepparou" or "Moonviewing and Cherry Blossom".
