| For administrative purposes, the area is considered to be part of Kyoto Prefecture but it is also close to Heijo-kyo and Todai-ji Temple in Nara geographically, with the remains of Kuni-kyo (temporarily the capital city during the Nara period) and Yamashiro Provincial Temple also nearby. |
行政的には京都府に属するが、地理的には奈良の平城京や東大寺からも近く、恭仁宮跡（奈良時代に一時期都が置かれた）や山城国分寺跡も近い。 |
