Nara Park

Located about an hour or so south of Osaka, Nara Park is most famous for its adorable and mischievous deer. In addition to these free roaming wild critters, Nara park also has two very important cultural assets, the Giant Buddha at Todai-ji temple and the Kasuga Grand Shrine.

If you plan on visiting Nara, be sure to get an early start as many of the attractions close by 5pm. Be sure to get there before lunch so that you have sufficient time for meandering amongst the deer and being completely awed by the park!
