#OctoberTravelSupport 📍 Nara National Museum Review The Nara National Museum, located inside Nara Park, was surprisingly quiet and peaceful. The tranquil atmosphere from the entrance made it perfect for a stroll, and the interior was well-presented, focusing on Buddhist sculptures. 🪷 While the exhibition isn't large, each piece was neatly organized, making it easy to focus on. The main building, built during the Meiji period, was particularly beautiful. Its old-world Western architecture inspired many photographers. 📸 The inner annex is connected to a modern structure, but the dim lighting made for a quiet viewing experience. The abundance of Buddhist statues and paintings truly evoked a sense of traditional Japanese beauty. Some explanations are only in English, and photography is prohibited in many areas, making it more of a "visit" experience than a documented one. Still, it's a perfect stopover on your way through Nara Park. It's not crowded, and it's close to the waterfall and Todaiji Temple, making it easy to plan your route. 🕊️ 🏛️ Address: 50 Todai-cho, Nara City, Nara Prefecture 🕓 Hours: 9:30 AM - 5:00 PM (Closed Mondays) 💴 Admission: Adults 700 yen (excludes special exhibitions)

#OctoberTravelSupport 📍 Nara National Museum Review Located inside Nara Park, the Nara National Museum was a quiet and clean space. While not particularly large, the Buddhist artifacts were neatly displayed, making it easy to focus on. The exterior exudes a classic charm, while the new building inside has been renovated with a modern touch, blending perfectly with the building's unique atmosphere. 🏛️ The museum contained a variety of Buddhist artifacts, including Buddhist statues, Buddhist paintings, and ceremonial implements. The dim lighting made for a relaxing viewing experience. While the English explanations were a bit lacking, each piece was so intricate that I was able to fully appreciate it without having to read the text. Since there weren't many visitors, I was able to enjoy the museum as if I were taking a quiet stroll. It was also a great place to take a break after seeing the deer in Nara Park. 🦌 I heard it's quite popular during special exhibition periods, so I'd love to come back then. Photography isn't allowed in many areas, so it's best to just take it all in with your eyes. Overall, the museum was clean and quiet, making it a great place to take a moment to clear your mind during your trip. 🌿 📍 Address: 50 Todai-cho, Nara City, Nara Prefecture 🕓 Hours: 9:30–17:00 (Closed Mondays)
