Suzakumon Gate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Suzakumon Gate was the main gate of the imperial palace in the Japanese ancient capital of Fujiwarakyō, Nara, and later Kyoto. |
| | In 1993, it was decided that the gate of Nara would be reconstructed. |
| | A conjectural model was developed, based on comparable architecture elsewhere, and the new gate was constructed from a mixture of traditional building materials (cypress wood and tiles) and concrete, in order to resist earthquakes. |
