Not far outside Osaka lies a smaller city called Nara. Known for it's temples and also wild deer walking around that you can feed. Beautiful temples and amazing sunset if you get up a bit higher. Time it so that you see the top of the hill last, that way you will get the sunset. Todai-Ji temple is one of the largest wooden structures in the world. And not only that, the buddha statue inside the temple is the largest bronze statue in the world. The ancient Japanese kingdom was really amazing building this!
Clear signs when walking from the train station
Herro Bambi!
Not afraid of people at all
People contributing to this park
Lanterns, thousands or lanterns
That is one big tree
Autumn in coming, whole family feeding here
Whaaat??
Gate to Todai-Ji temple
Hundreds of bids on the arches
Massive building, it's by far the biggest wooden structure I have ever seen. This picture does not really show it very well. Maybe if you compare the people by the gate to the size?
And massive buddha too
School class visiting, like the minions
Sunset from the hill up on Todai-Ji
Good night Nara
Another gigantic spider
View is best from up there
Ramen for dinner, yum yum!
The hotel gym & pool were great!
But if you have tattoos there is no entering here...Yakuzzas are big here
Need some toys?
