      • Nishinokyocho
        Found to the South west of modem Nara is an ancient area called Nishi-nokyo (meaning "west of the capital"), where you will find three important temples.

        The sunset reflection of the twin pagodas of Yakushlji in a nearby lake is one of Japan's most striking and visually poetic images. Of the original buildings, only the To-to (East Pagoda) remains, considered by many to be Japan's most beautiful pagoda.

        Although it appears to have six stories, the pagoda is actually a three-story structure, each level having an extra roof for added visual impact. The vermilion Sai-to (West Pagoda) was built in 1980 on the site of the long-destroyed original. Between them is the Kondo (golden, or main, hall), reconstructed in 1975.

        Among its many notable bronze images is the Yakushi triad, comprising three blackened-bronze images: the Yakushi Buddha (dedicated to healing and medicine) seated on a medicine chest between Bodhisattvas of the sun and moon.

      • Tōshōdai-ji

        The Toshodaiji temple boasts rare examples of ancient architecture and sculpture. Less spectacular than some of the temples in expensively restored Nishi-nokyo which is its neighbor to the south, Toshodaiji nevertheless is the largest remaining example of Nara period architecture.

        It has numerous period sculptures - the most celebrated is a 5-m (16.5-ft) thousand-armed Kannon statue.

      • Nara

        For anyone interested in the history of Japanese art and culture, no visit will be complete bereft of a tour of Nara. Note that as well as it's magnificent cultural treasures; Nara offers the unlikely phenomenon of the world's most aggressive deer.

        Although Kyoto endures as Japan's major historical and cultural centre, Japanese tourists, and you too should equally revere this the Kansai region's other fasinating historical center.

      • Kōfukuji Five Storied Pagoda

        Found in the Nara Park and at the edge of the Sarusawa-ike pond is Kofukuji temple. It's impressive 50 metre or 165 foot, pagoda with 5 floors.

        It is Japan's second-largest after the Toji pagoda which is located in Kyoto.

        It is undoubtedly one of Nara's most photographed places. The present structure, which is still very old, as it dates from 1426, replacing some 5 pagodas each one destroyed by fire and then rebuilt.

        In the past Kofukuji has comprised around 175 buildings, most of which have been lost. These include the Kasuga Grand Shrine, with which it has been closely associated for well over a thousand years.  This is found at the foot of Mt. Wakakusa. 

        The surviving artworks of Kofukuji and other artifacts are housed in its newest building, the Museum of National Treasures. This is now a fire-proof building which was constructed in 1958 to honour Kofukuji's  cultural and historic importance.

      • Nara National Museum

        This is originally built part of museum. It is connected by a subterranean tunnel to a newer, tile-roofed structure just beyond it.

        This museum of ancient art displays Buddhist statues and sculptural types from around the year 600 through the Middle Ages.

        The permanent collection is housed in the old wing, and its fascinating exhibits showcase the development of Chinese influenced Buddhist art and design.

        The gift shop in the underpass between the two buildings offers an excellent selection of quality souvenirs, reproductions, and posters of Nan culture.

        The Shin-Yakushi Temple is an edifice of genuine antiquity.

      • Nara Park
        Nara Park's most famous residents are its deer, protected since the eighth century, when they were considered messengers from the gods. Despite being wild the deer are quite tame and loiter around the park's various tourist attractions, hoping for a free snack of the deer biscuits sold here.

        Have your camera ready to record the incredible sight of a wailing Japanese child beating a hasty retreat to its parents after being chased by a group of hungry deer in a feeding frenzy.
