In the late 700s, Japan's court moved from Nara to Heian-kyo, which is modern-day Kyoto. This relocation in 794 marked the beginning of the Heian period, characterized by a flourishing of art, culture, and literature. The move was partly motivated by the desire to escape the influence of Buddhist temples and to establish a more centralized and imperial authority.

Heian was the effective capital and was moved to Kamakura and then Edo (Tokyo), with the last two being the shogun's capital.
