Tour of the Great Buddha of Nara

(Highlights) The Great Buddha of Nara is a magnificent structure weighing some 500 tons. Originally built in 752 AD, the stature is 15.9 meters high excluding the pedestal and its face 4.8 meters long. Subsequently, it was damaged by natural disasasters, fires and wars and was repaired several times. It was completely rebuilt in the Edo period (1603-1867). You will be amazed at the splendid image of the Great Buddha calmly seated on the pedestal with the look of a perfect repose and passionless calm. His right hand shows mercy and left hand, the wisdom of the universe. The building housing this huge image, The Great Buddha Hall of Todaiji Temple, is the largest existing wooden structure in the world, having an area of 54 meters by 49 meters and a height of 45 meters. It was burned down by a fire twice, but was rebuilt in the Edo period. (How to enjoy) You will be amazed at how huge the Buddha image is. Immerse yourself in the solemn atmosphere it creates amid the odor of burning incense, wonder at the ancient technology and the wisdom and the devotion of people. After all, you will never end up not being deeply impressed with the aura the "Daibutsu-sama" Great Buddha emits. Everywhere around the Great Buddha Hall, in the meantime, you can enjoy mixing with tame deer which do you no harm but ask you for food, "shika-sembei", which is being sold at the nearby stalls for 150 yen a pack containing some 50 grams of the deer food. You will feel very happy feeding, stroking and hugging the cute animal whose number exceeds, perhaps, 100. (Others) The transportation fare between Kyoto and Nara on a Kintetsu train is 620 yen (plus 510 yen if you take a limited express train). The entrance fee to Todaiji temple is 600 yen.

Eastern Tokyo Tour: Taito, Chuo, and Minato

Tokyo

“Customised tour of East Tokyo. ”

We meet Grant at our hotel and he gave us a rundown of the plan. It was a full itinerary, which covered all the areas we wanted to see. Grant was very knowledgeable on all aspects, history, locations and culture. He also was great in helping us get organised for the rest of our trip by sorting rail tickets with us. We had a great day.

“Großartig ”

Schon vorab war der Kontakt mit Armando so nett, wodurch wir uns schon auf den Tag mit ihm freuten. Er holte uns wie vereinbart im Hafen ab und zeigte uns sein Nagasaki. Er erzählte uns viel über die Geschichte der Stadt und hatte auf jede Frage eine Antwort. Armando ging auf unsere Wünsche ein uns zeigte uns verborgene Stellen, abseits der Massen, uns Fotostopps, die wir alleine nie gefunden hätten. Es war eine erstklassige Tour mit ihm. Vielen Dank!!

“Koichi was a wonderful and thoughtful guide! ”

We truly enjoyed Koichi guiding us thru Kyoto. He was a wealth of information. If you want to discover Kyoto and learn all about it’s history and the meaning behind everything, you need to have Koichi guide you. His hidden talent is photography!! He made wonderful pictures of us to remember this memorable day! Thank you so much Koichi for a wonderful experience. We will come and visit again.

Hi! Thank you for giving me such a nice rating and heartwarming comments. I am truly honored to have had the opportunity to meet such a wonderful couple. Though our time together was brief, I am genuinely happy we shared such a delightful time. I hope we can meet again in the near future. Please do visit my hometown of Shiga next time. Arigato-gozaimasu!! Koichi
