Come and enjoy this authentic experience where you get to visit two World Heritage Sites in Nara, Todai-ji Temple and Kasuga Taisha Shrine, as well as Nara Park on this half-day afternoon tour. As we walk through Nara Park you will get to see wild deer up close, a rarity in Japan and elsewhere in the world. You will be accompanied by an English-speaking guide and after the tour, will be dropped off in Avanti (across from Kyoto Station Hachijo Exit).
Todai-ji Temple - It was the chief temple in the Kokubun-ji system, it was a centre for rituals for the peace of the nation and the prosperity of the people, it was also used as a centre for the training of scholar monks who studied Buddhist doctrine. See the intensity of Todai-ji Temple's Great Buddha statue, which is absolutely stunning.
Kasuga Taisha Shrine - It is a distinguished shrine with 3,000 auxiliary shrines across the country and 3,000 donated lanterns, demonstrating how widely and deeply worshipped the shrine is. Just like in ancient times, services are offered every morning and evening, and prayers are offered for national and global peace, and for the happiness and wellbeing of all people.
