A deer temple 🦌🦌🦌🦌

#2024wish Located at the east side of Nara, Kasuga Taisha is an ancient temple that built 1300 years ago to protect the Heijō Palace Site Historical Park. Takemikazuchi no mikoto, the deity of the temple was welcomed here riding a white deer. Ever since then, the deers have been treated as an animal to god and if you visit the place, you will see the deers all over the temple and you can just buy the foods to feed them. Tips: —> Walking from Nara Park, it will be more than 1 km distance. Make sure you wear a comfortable shoes when going there! Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ In 2024, I wish to travel to Perth, Australia.

Kasuga Taisha

Along with Fushimi Inari of Kyoto, this was one of the best religious place in Japan. The walk up to it is magical surrounded by forest, stone lanterns and of course, deer. The temple itself is not very large but worth the entrance fee as inside it is full of ornately decorated metal lanterns and there is a room where you can see them lit up. I also got lucky as a wedding ceremony was taking place so I got a bit of a taste for what that is like. Even though it is a bit far from the park entrance do not miss this if you're in Nara, not only is it worth the walk but the walk is part of the beauty. Very tranquil and relaxing to walk. Well suited to anyone who enjoys photography the area lends itself to the camera with interesting old trees and structures and contrasts. #givethanks #givethanks
