What other travelers are saying about Nara Park (Nara Deer Park)
Beautiful park with so much to see. The temples and shrines are all around and spectacular to see the size of them.
There is plenty of flora and fauna to admire, especially the deer that will happily bow if you feed them the crackers provided or even if you just bow to them first they will bow back.
Sensational park featuring deer 🦌. There is wonderful nature, and of course the magnificent temples. All around, you see something inexplicably gorgeous. Truly stunning and phenomenal. The dazzling temples really are something spectacularly exquisite. Good day trip from Osaka.
Very busy but definitely enjoyable.
Do remember although the deer will feed from you they are still wild animals and will follow you around being very persistent.
Well worth looking at the nearby temples and shrines as well as checking out the food spots.
Amazing wildlife park with buddhist temple! The deers are very cute and friendly and let you pet them gently. A must -do on the list if you’re visiting Japan.
We visited the buddhist temple and walked past plenty of lovely deer. Some of the deer do get aggressive though when there is food around. It was so nice to be able to feed them for 200¥. The temple is very beautiful and makes for great photos. This is a great place for tourists as plenty of staff speak some english.
