Pourquoi Visiter Nara
Encounter Sacred Deer: Over 1,200 wild Sika deer roam freely in Nara Park and temple grounds, considered divine messengers of the Shinto gods. You can feed them special shika senbei (deer crackers) sold by vendors, and many have learned to bow politely for a treat—a magical, interactive experience found nowhere else in Japan.
Witness Architectural Marvels: See some of Japan's oldest and most significant structures, including Todai-ji Temple's Daibutsuden (Great Buddha Hall), the largest wooden building in the world housing a 15-meter bronze Buddha. Explore the serene, lantern-lined paths of Kasuga Grand Shrine and the exquisite wooden pagoda of Kofuku-ji Temple.
Experience Ancient Capital Grandeur: Walk in the footsteps of 8th-century emperors. Nara's layout, with its grand boulevards modeled on China's Tang capital, and its collection of eight UNESCO World Heritage sites—collectively called 'Historic Monuments of Ancient Nara'—offer an unparalleled immersion into Japan's formative cultural and political history.
