NARA JAPAN TOUR GUIDE & DAY 2 VLOG

if you visit Osaka or Kyoto, i think it is a waste to skip NARA
Nara is known for their bowing deers. But they also have a lot to offer

from wikipedia:

Nara is the capital of Japan’s Nara Prefecture, in south-central Honshu. The city has significant temples and artwork dating to the 8th century, when it was Japan’s capital. Deer roam in Nara Park, site of Tōdai-ji temple. Daibutsu, Tōdai-ji's 15m-high bronze Buddha, is displayed in a large wooden hall. On the park's east side is the Shinto shrine Kasuga Taisha, which dates to 768 A.D. and more than 3,000 lanterns.

The city occupies the northern part of Nara Prefecture, bordering Kyoto Prefecture. Eight temples, shrines and ruins in Nara remain: specifically Tōdai-jiSaidai-jiKōfuku-jiKasuga ShrineGangō-jiYakushi-jiTōshōdai-ji, and the Heijō Palace, together with Kasugayama Primeval Forest, collectively form "Historic Monuments of Ancient Nara", a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The deers were not as cute as i expected them to be most of them looked dirty and un-cared of, although they might seem well fed and have wide spaces. 




i managed to go to the deer park and Kasuga Shrine. 


Dinner at an Udon place outside the Nara Station
ODashi na Udon is LOVE! 

i super duper recommend eating Udon in Nara!
the soup was perfect, and the udon was nice,
the shrimp tempura was yummy and veggies.





The Mascot of Nara Shikamaru or Sikka is the most common
type of deer in nara, it was so cute that i bought plenty of souvenirs!


Nara is known to have great Udon and delicious Mochi
you can watch some people make mochi if you are lucky.


I bought some sakura mochi and it was divine!

The photos below are not the mochi, check out my video
for the unboxing.
