    Nara Nara-shi Kasuganocho 4-banchi

    A lovely centre where you can have a cup of coffee in peace, away from all the tours. It’s also well worth a visit in its own right. It is not a big place, more of an exhibition than a museum, but...

Nara Areas

With a reputation almost as stellar as that of Kyoto, Nara is a must-visit for those searching for the remains of "traditional Japan." The largely green Nara city holds the majority of the prefecture’s treasures, such as the iconic Todai-ji Temple, in which a 15-meter tall Great Buddha sits, and Nara Park, where deer flock to befriend passersby. While mountains are by no means hard to come by in this area, for hiking with a reward, head to the Kii Mountains’ Yoshino district in spring, when the hillsides put on an impressive display of white and pink cherry blossoms.
