Kasuga Shrine (Yamanokami) Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Zen mode with Nara Deer
#naratrip
Really enjoyed the energy and peacefulness of this area! At first was only expecting temples and view, but never thought that there are deers surrounding too! So much blending into the nature.
There are more temples at the mountain top with paid entrance ticket, but we stop at the middle and bought a wishing-nara-deer as a souvenirs.
Recommend to visit this place and allocate roughly 2-3hours for a slow pace tour.
