Nara Park offers a pleasant contrast to the hectic pace of downtown. Amble around the grounds or kick off your shoes and feel the grass beneath your feet.
Nara Park is the perfect place kick off your day in Nara. This recreation and green space is recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Set aside time for other sights like Todaiji Temple, Kasuga Shrine, and Yakushi-ji Temple to fully appreciate what's on offer in the area.
