Let's visit the World Heritage Site of the Ancient Capital of Nara
Nara Park is one of Japan's most famous tourist attractions, where history and nature are in harmony. The vast site is dotted with many temples and historical sites that are cultural heritage from the Nara period, and is particularly famous for its coexistence with deer. Historical buildings, Buddhist statues and beautiful gardens dating back to the Nara period attract visitors. Visitors can also enjoy the beautiful nature in each of the four seasons, with cherry blossoms in spring and autumn leaves in autumn creating a magnificent scene. Walking along the walking paths in Nara Park, you can feel the unique atmosphere of the ancient capital.

*The deer in Nara Park are herbivores and eat grass and nuts. Deer crackers are a safe snack for them. Do not feed them sweets, vegetables or paper as they will upset their stomachs.

A journey through the nature and history of Dorogawa 820 m above sea level
Dorogawa Onsen, located in Tenkawa Village, Yoshino-gun, Nara Prefecture, is a hot spring resort rich in nature, surrounded by beautiful mountains. The hot spring water is free-flowing from the source and is sure to heal both body and soul. The hot spring resort is dotted with a variety of different types of inns, where you can enjoy the seasonal scenery from the open-air baths. There are also walking paths and observatories around the hot springs, where you can take a stroll and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Local cuisine and specialities can also be enjoyed, making this the perfect spot for those wishing to refresh themselves.

Universal Studios Japan is a must for anyone visiting the Kansai area of Japan (Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, Kobe, etc). The park offers seasonal events (Cool Japan and Halloween Horror Nights), one of the best roller coasters I’ve experienced (The Flying Dinosaur), and don’t forget about The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

Food plays an important part of your day while you’re bouncing from attraction to attraction. The park has delicious, cute, and downright bizarre food to enjoy. Here’s my list of best snacks at Universal Studios Japan. What’s fantastic is that a lot of these are budget-friendly at a cost under ¥600 ($5 USD).
