The Imperial palace of Canton or as it is officially known as Tiānton was build in the start of the city. It was build by the emperor Takeo Sakuri so he could live closer to the new center of power in the new nation he started. Construction started in the year 1629, only a few years after the beginning of construction of the first building in the city. The first part of the palace construction lasted 20 years and at the end of it the main building of the palace was build surrounding with some small other buildings. In total the palace had 5 expansions in which the palace complex grew for only a main building into a palace the size of a small city.
In the present it is the biggest palace of the nation and is still in use by the imperial family though some parts are open to the public.

Saint Catherine is one of the oldest churches in the city of Canton. It was build by the lady Isaki Oye in 1632. She was of the first generation Christians in CRD, her conversion happened when she went on a trip outside of Canton River Delta to the Christian nations of the north. The nation composted then of almost zero Christians and so it was difficult to build her church. The construction lasted 26 years with her and 5 other people working on it almost every day. Those 5 others were friends who also converted to the christian faith due to her. When the lady her life came to an end she was buried inside the church.
The church has since then had some expansions with a hospital wing and a church garden. It is in the present one of the most visited churches in all of Canton River Delta.
