Haikage Palace

The Haikage Palace is a large temple-like structure occupied by the Haikage and their respective family. It is located within the center of Kemurigakure on a mountain overseeing the rest of the village. The temple was built long before the area around was settled, thus the rest of the village was built around it.

Appearance
The palace’s structure vastly differs from the city beneath it. The color for the roofs in the castle is red in contrast to the black color of the villagers home. A pagoda-like building lies at the end of the courtyard, serving as the main entrance for the vicinity of the inside. The buildings beside it are arranged horizontally or vertically, and plantation fills up the spaces left by these structures.

As the castle is situated atop a small mountain, a huge stone platform supports it from the base. This platform has windows on the top and it has three extension layers used for traveling the castle. The first layer is covered with trees and it houses the first entrance gate and two buildings. From there, a long staircase leading to the second layer can be seen. This layer is comparatively small and only has a house and a small staircase leading to the last layer. In the middle of the third layer are three sets of staircase separated by five-sided walls with embedded red dragon pictures. All of the stairs meet on a small platform with another staircase that finally leads to the main entrance gate.
