Mejores Tours de Nara desde Semejante

Once the capital of Japan in the 8th century, Nara is a city steeped in history and known for its ancient temples, friendly free-roaming deer, and peaceful atmosphere. Just under an hour from Kyoto or Osaka by train, Nara is a popular day trip destination, especially for first-time visitors to the Kansai region. Its most famous site is Todai-ji Temple, home to the Great Buddha (Daibutsu) - one of the largest bronze Buddha statues in the world - housed inside one of the world's largest wooden buildings. Nara Park, which surrounds many of the key attractions, is home to over 1,000 sacred deer that freely roam the area and interact with visitors (especially if you have deer crackers). Other must-see spots include Kasuga Taisha Shrine, known for its hundreds of bronze lanterns, and Kofuku-ji Temple, with its iconic five-story pagoda. Nara offers a calm and cultural counterpoint to Japan’s bustling cities, making it an easy and meaningful addition to any Kansai itinerary.
