• Kofuku-ji Temple - Alongside Todai-ji, this temple is the most renowned in Nara city. Its spacious grounds feature not only a five-story pagoda but also numerous halls. It’s famous for housing many Buddha statues, with the Asura statue, in particular, being a favorite for its melancholic and youthful appearance. You can often witness the unique Nara scene of deer strolling in front of the five-story pagoda within the temple grounds.
• Izasa-Nakatani-hompo Yumekaze-hiroba - This is a small market located in front of Todai-ji’s gate. It features restaurants and cafes where you can enjoy lunch, and you can also purchase souvenirs like Nara Prefecture’s local products. With 11 shops lined up, you can explore a variety of options.
• Todai-ji Temple - This temple is renowned for the towering Great Buddha of Nara. The Great Buddha, constructed 1,300 years ago by the emperor of that time with the aim of peace and salvation for the people, is an awe-inspiring sight. Experience the grandeur created by the colossal wooden structure and the Great Buddha up close.
• Todai-ji Nigatsudo (February Hall) - This suspended temple within the Todai-ji complex is a remarkable architectural feat. It extends out from the cliff, symbolizing the pure land where the main deity, Kannon Bodhisattva, resides. The illuminated temple precinct, adorned with large lanterns, offers a panoramic view of Nara’s town, including the Great Buddha Hall.
• Kasuga Grand Shrine - Located in Nara Park, this shrine is dedicated to the ancestral deities of the Fujiwara clan, one of Japan’s renowned noble families. The deer, a common sight in Nara Park, are regarded as messengers of the shrine’s gods and have been highly respected. After your visit, consider offering senbei (rice crackers) to the deer.
