Get up close and personal with the deer! A complete guide to Nara one-day tour

When traveling to Kansai, I considered that if I took the Osaka➡️Kyoto➡️Nara➡️Osaka loop, I would need to bring my luggage and change hotels. I was afraid of trouble, so I stayed in Osaka and took a one-day round trip to Nara. This time I would like to share the Nara route! 🚊Transportation Osaka Namba Station➡️Kintetsu Nara Station, JPY680 (Kintetsu Railway) Kintetsu Nara Station➡️Osaka Namba Station, JPY680 (Kintetsu Railway) There is no other transportation in the city, so the only remaining option is to run wild! 🗺️Route Kintetsu Nara➡️Saruzawa Pond➡️Kofukuji Temple➡️Nara Park➡️Kasuga Taisha Shrine➡️Wakakusayama➡️Nara Prefectural Office➡️Kintetsu Nara ⚠️Tips 🔹You need to buy deer cakes. The main purpose of Nara is to feed the deer. It costs JPY200 per serving. Buy the first one you see. On the day I left, I only saw two vendors selling deer cakes, so I bought it first before coming behind. I want to buy it but I can’t find the place. 🔹When feeding the deer, feed a little less each time. I feed one deer cake almost ten times. I saw some people feed one deer cake at a time and finish it in a while. 🔹Be sure to keep your passport and cash, deer 🦌 will eat them, and the wrapping paper of my deer cake was eaten by them accidentally. 🔹Wakagusan Mountain and Kasuga Taisha Shrine are both popular for filming, but you should pay attention to the weather. If it is too sunny, it will be difficult to stay at Wakagusan Mountain without cover. In this case, you can consider spending more time at Kasuga Taisha Shrine, close to the forest 🌳It will not be too much if it is covered sun. It was cloudy on the day I came, so I sat on Mt. Wakakusa for two hours. It was really healing! The route in Nara is very simple. These places are not far from Kintetsu Nara Station, and walking is not tiring. It is mainly for leisure and relaxation!
