Meet Nara’s Friendly Deer at Nara Park

#japantrip #travel #nara #osaka #thingstodo #deerpark #solotrip #summer Walking through Nara Deer Park feels like stepping into a fairytale. Hundreds of free-roaming, friendly deer greet visitors, bowing in exchange for special deer crackers (shika senbei) that you can buy from vendors around the park. The park is huge and scenic, with stunning views of Todai-ji Temple and its towering Great Buddha nearby. Located just a short walk from Kintetsu-Nara Station, this is a must-visit spot for anyone wanting to experience Japan’s cultural heritage and natural beauty—while making some adorable new friends!
