Visiting Nara from Osaka ～truly the must-see place in Japan～

Visiting Nara from Osaka ～truly the must-see place in Japan～

Nara: the must-see place in Japan. Nara was the capital of ancient Japan before Kyoto became the capital. In the Nara era, Buddhism played an important role in stabilizing the country. So you can see many big old temples there. Many of these are listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites and are concentrated in a small area. So, if you have only one free day to spend in the Kansai area, I highly recommend visiting Nara.

Discover Osaka: Samurai History & Local Streets

“Osaka Day-Tour with Leo”

It was a fantastic day filled with special places, great food, and lovely conversations. Leo took us to a temple and a shrine, where he taught us about the proper etiquette for praying and explained the local traditions and customs. Afterwards, we tried some local food that we probably wouldn’t have chosen on our own — and it was absolutely delicious! We then went on a little shopping tour and souvenir hunt, where Leo helped us find exactly what we were looking for. He is a friendly, open-minded, and knowledgeable guide who speaks English very well. Great tour, great guide — 10/10!
