Kyoto Prefectural Government Building

Kyoto Prefectural Government Building京都府庁

The Kyoto Prefectural Office, designed by Matsumuro Shigemitsu (1873-1937), is a wonderful building northwest of downtown.

It alludes to a French chateau in appearance, and was completed in 1904.

The main  prefectural police building, which is modern and brutal, is across the street to the south.
