When you climb to the top, you can see the view of Nara city all around. 🦌 When you walk up, you have to pay an entrance fee. Junior high school students go up 150 yen, children 3 years old and up 80 yen. After paying, we walk up to see the herd of deer on top. 🦌 When you walk up to the hill, you will see a herd of deer walking around. The deer on this mountain are different from the deer in Nara Park below. What you can see is that they have long, complete antlers, stripes on their bodies, and shinier fur. As for the antlers, you might guess that there are a lot of tourists down there, so they cut their antlers to prevent them from being dangerous to tourists. As for the stripes and fur, it might be due to the breed. 🦌 We walked to the viewpoint. Looking down, it was very beautiful. You could see houses, temple roofs, and as far as the eye can see. The weather was great, and it was even more beautiful when the sun set. This is during the summer. There will also be a fireworks display on the mountain. 🦌 Access: Walking: Approximately 25 minutes from Kintetsu Nara Station and 40 minutes from Nara Station By bus: Take the Nara Kotsu Bus Nara City Loop Line clockwise for 4 minutes and get off at Daibutsuden Kasuga Taisha-mae Station, then walk for 15 minutes.
