What other travelers are saying about Ukimido Pavilion
A nice wild pagoda in the middle of the lake. We came during winter so it was rather lacking. The water levels were low so most of it was essentially mud. There were some ducks and lots of people. Would probably be beautiful during the other seasons.
A place to gather or cool down after a good walk in the park. This kiosque offers a view on the water and trees around, that might shows off flowers 🌺 if you are there during the right season.
You'll find turtles in the water and small walking path around the water that leads to the park.
Beautiful and quiet place. Definitely worth a visit! Loved all the wildlife and how you can just relax here. Drinking vending machines and restrooms nearby too. We loved all the turtles chilling.
Nara Deer Park is such a lovely place for a walk! The deer are friendly, and you can buy biscuits for them for just 200 yen, which adds to the fun. However, watch out for the younger deer—they can get a bit greedy and might nip at your clothes! I'd recommend approaching the older deer, as they are much calmer and more tame. Even in winter, the park was beautiful, but I can imagine how stunning it would be in spring or autumn. A must-visit spot if you're in the area!
