Itinerary
Tucked away at the foot of a sacred, untouched primeval forest, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is famous for its mesmerizing paths lined with thousands of stone and bronze lanterns. The brilliant vermilion shrine offers a spiritual, serene atmosphere that will leave you absolutely spellbound.
Step inside the Great Buddha Hall (Daibutsuden), one of the largest wooden buildings on Earth, to stand before the jaw-dropping, 15-meter-tall bronze Great Buddha. Walking through this 1,200-year-old temple complex is a profound encounter with monumental history and unmatched architectural genius.
Explore a vast, picturesque sanctuary where over 1,000 free-roaming, bowing deer greet you. Protected for centuries as sacred messengers of the gods, these gentle animals roam against a backdrop of stunning seasonal colors—from spring cherry blossoms to fiery autumn maples.
Nara’s Historic Merchant District Step back in time as you stroll through the peaceful, narrow streets of Nara's former merchant district. Lined with beautifully preserved wooden townhouses (machiya) from the Edo period, this charming area is the perfect spot to discover traditional crafts, cozy local cafes, and hidden shrines away from the crowds.

About Osaka
Osaka is known as Japan's kitchen, a big-hearted port city of neon canals, street food and a grand castle, with Kyoto, Nara and Kobe close by.
Dotonbori, the canal-side entertainment strip, is the city's beating heart, its giant mechanical crab and glowing billboards reflected in the water. Nearby, the covered arcades of Shinsaibashi and the kitchenware street of Doguyasuji draw shoppers, and Kuromon Market tempts with seafood, wagyu skewers and fruit.
Top-ranked sights in Osaka: Tsutenkaku Tower, Osaka Castle (Osaka-jo), Nara Park (Nara Koen).
