There is no existing building of Shinden-zukuri now, but it is said that Shishinden (formal place for ceremonies in the Dairi, Emperor's private spaces) and Seiryoden (literally "Limpid Cool Hall," an imperial summer palace) in Kyoto Gosho (Old Imperial Palace) recreated the style in the latter part of the Heian period.
寝殿造りの建物は、現存していないが、京都御所の紫宸殿と清涼殿は、平安時代後期の形式を再現しているという。
