Açıklama
Feed Nara’s sacred deer, admire the Great Buddha in Tōdai-ji, explore Naramachi, and enjoy a mochi-pounding demonstration with fresh mochi tasting.
Meet your guide at Kintetsu Nara Station and begin with Kōfuku-ji Temple, home to the iconic five-story pagoda. Learn its history and role in Japan’s first capital.
Next, head to Nara Park where you’ll feed the sacred deer—your guide will provide crackers and share local legends about these animals as messengers of the gods.
Continue to Tōdai-ji Temple to see the awe-inspiring Great Buddha inside one of the world’s largest wooden structures. Take in the serene atmosphere as incense drifts through the hall.
Follow your guide along Kasuga Taisha’s lantern-lined paths for a peaceful forest walk steeped in Shinto tradition.
Then, in Naramachi Old Town, you’ll enjoy a mochi-pounding demonstration. Watch as steamed rice is rhythmically pounded with wooden mallets, a centuries-old Japanese tradition. Afterwards, taste freshly prepared mochi—soft, chewy, and lightly flavored with seasonal toppings. Your guide will explain the cultural meaning of mochi in Japanese life, from New Year celebrations to local festivals.
The tour concludes in Naramachi’s preserved merchant district, where your guide will recommend cozy cafés and local eateries to enjoy after the tour.
