The residences in the town of court nobility, located in what is now Kyoto Gyoen, were all demolished on an order of relocation to Tokyo issued at the beginning of the Meiji Period, but the residence of the Kami Reizei family is said to have escaped demolition due to its location to the North of Imadegawa. 現在の京都御苑にあった公家町の公家の屋敷は明治初期の東京移住命令により全て取り壊されたが、今出川以北にあった上冷泉家は取り壊しをまぬがれたといわれている。 |
