Nara

Nara is just amazing! It's small, lovely and beautiful. And everywhere around the green areas deers are chilling around. Here our first impression:

In the Todai-ji Temple - Nara's star attraction - stands the great Daibutsu-den Hall. This hall is the largest wooden building in the world...

In the hall the famous Daibutsu - Great Buddha - sits, originally cast in 746. It's an abronze figure and one of the largest in the world. Yes, it's superlative time ;-)

As it is in a buddhist temple, there are many figures to be encountered.

Still, our personal highlights are the deers ;)

 

In the Nara Park, almost as big as the city itself, many amazing temples and gardens can be spotted.

Here the Yoshiki-en Garden - imagine: it's free for tourists and Japanese need to pay!.. Wrong world somehow... ;)

It's so beautiful!



Good bye Nara - you are amazing!!!
