天皇ご一家、６日から皇居に　引っ越し期間は宮殿滞在

　宮内庁は３日、天皇ご一家が６日に皇居に引っ越されると発表した。皇位の証しとされる剣と璽＝勾玉（まがたま）＝を６日に赤坂御所（東京都港区）から移す。
　ご一家は６～１５日の引っ越し作業期間、皇居・宮殿に滞在した後、改修した旧吹上仙洞御所に入る。重要な儀式や行事に使用する宮殿を宿泊先とするのは異例。那須御用邸（栃木県）などでの滞在が検討されていたが、新型コロナウイルスの緊急事態宣言下で都道府県をまたぐ移動を避けるため見送られた。（2021/09/03-12:14）

Japanese Emperor Naruhito and his family will start moving to their new residence in the Imperial Palace grounds in Tokyo Monday, the Imperial Household Agency said Friday.
   The sword and the jewel from the Imperial Family's Three Sacred Treasures will be transferred from the Akasaka Imperial Residence, the current home of the family of Emperor Naruhito in Tokyo's Minato Ward, to the palace in Chiyoda Ward.
   During the relocation work until Sept. 15, Emperor Naruhito, Empress Masako and their daughter, Princess Aiko, will stay at the main Imperial Palace building, where important rituals and events take place.
   The family will then move to the renovated former Fukiage Sento Palace, their new home at the premises of the Imperial Palace.
   The family's unusual stay at the main palace building will come after a plan for them to sojourn at the Nasu Imperial Villa in the town of Nasu in Tochigi Prefecture, eastern Japan, during the relocation-related work was dropped in view of the need to avoid travel outside of Tokyo at a time when the Japanese capital, Tochigi and many other parts of the country are under a state of emergency over the novel coronavirus crisis.
