The “Shin'en” at Heian Jingu is a stroll-style pond garden consisting of four gardens—East, Central, West, and South—that surround the main hall.
The East Shin'en is the largest of the four gardens and is characterized by elegant wooden structures, such as the “Taiheikaku,” which was originally built on the grounds of the Kyoto Imperial Palace (Kyoto Gosho).
