Japan, located in East Asia, is an extraordinarily beautiful island nation famed for its diverse blend of centuries-old traditions and cutting-edge technology. Known for its impressive cluster of skyscrapers in Tokyo, the ancient temples and geishas of Kyoto, the mesmerizing cherry blossoms in Hakone, and the delectable sushi and ramen, Japan offers a wealth of unrivaled experiences. The country is renowned for its impressive Shinkansen, or bullet trains, that deliver travelers across its four main islands while providing breathtaking scenic views. Japan also stands out for its respect for nature, which is reflected in its numerous stunning gardens and gorgeous Mount Fuji, a dormant volcano and the country's highest peak.

Nara, the capital city of Japan's Nara Prefecture, is located less than one hour away from both Osaka and Kyoto, and is renowned for its historical significance and beautifully preserved ancient architecture. Known as the birthplace of Japanese culture, Nara is famous for its grand temples, including Todai-ji, home to the world's largest bronze statue of Buddha, and Kasuga Taisha Shrine, distinguished by its myriad of stone and bronze lanterns. The city is also recognized for Nara Park, where over a thousand freely roaming sacred deer, considered messengers of gods in Shinto religion, attract tourists from across the globe. With its rich historical treasures, cultural attractions, and natural beauty, Nara is a must-visit destination in Japan.


Nara

The best thing in Nara is the deer.
They are really polite, they will bow to you when asking for food.
You can buy senbei from the small shop around there.
Be careful, the deers sometimes will flock if they smell the senbei from you
