The reason why Kyoto is called Luodu: The history of Kyoto once imitated Luoyang, so Kyoto is also called "Luo Jing", "Luodu" and even "Luoyang?" .
Introduction of early architectural models in Kyoto, Japan;
Kyoto, also known as Ping 'an Jing, is a traditional market-oriented city. It refers to Feng Shui thoughts and imitates Chang 'an, the capital of China in the Tang Dynasty. Ping An Jing is about 5.2 kilometers long from north to south and 4.5 kilometers long from east to west, covering an area equivalent to one-fifth of Chang 'an, the capital of China in the Tang Dynasty. The Da Nei Li where the emperor lived is located in the north of Ping An Jing, with Suzaku Road as the center.
The city is divided into two symmetrical parts: Youjing (also known as Chang 'an) and Zuojing (also known as Luoyang). Ping An Beijing is a traditional planned city in East Asia, with a large scale and rigorous planning. Pingchengjing is modeled after Chang 'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. Before Emperor Shengwu moved its capital to Heichengjing, the Japanese capital was Fujiwara, which was located in the south of Yamato Plain and the north of Asuka Village.
In 702 AD (the second year of Dabao), the Japanese sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty again, and after returning home, they described in detail the splendor of Chang 'an, China. Taking Chang 'an as a model, Fujiwara's passage from Luocheng Gate to the north is Suzaku Road, which is 74 meters wide and about 4 kilometers away from Suzaku Gate of Pingcheng Palace. There are ditches on the left and right sides of Suzaku Road, and trees such as willows and locust trees are planted along the road to form a tree-lined road.
Foreign envoys of the Tang Dynasty and Silla used to go to Pingchengjing through here. The core buildings of Pingchengjing, Daji Hall and Chaotangyuan, are located in Pingchenggong. This is to imitate the pattern of Chang 'an-the central building of Chang 'an is Taiji Palace Taiji Hall, and the west is Daming Palace Hanyuan Hall. The first hall is used to hold the ceremony of the emperor's accession to the throne and the audience of foreign envoys, and the second hall is used to handle daily affairs.
After moving back to Pingchengjing in 745 AD, a pavilion was built on the original site of the First Daji Hall, imitating the Linde Hall of Chang 'an Daming Palace, for a banquet. The interior is located in the north of Daji Hall, and the Tang Chao Courtyard is located in the south of Daji Hall.
