The stately Kyoto Prefectural Library beside the Heian Shrine torii gate served as architectural inspiration for Violet Evergarden's CH Postal Company building. Its Western-style facade with Japanese surroundings mirrors the anime's blend of European and Japanese aesthetics beautifully.

The library's Western-style architecture inspired the CH Postal Company's building exterior. The surrounding Okazaki area with its museums and the Heian Shrine further echoes the anime's refined aesthetic.
