Nara Autumn Leaves Season One-Day Intensive Tour, Breathtakingly Beautiful!

🍁 Nara Autumn Leaves Season, this Citywalk has made me a legend! Do you always see Kyoto autumn leaves guides but overlook the treasure that is Nara? I originally planned to go to Kyoto, but was amazed by Nara’s maple leaves, deer, and ancient temples. After one day, I couldn’t stop marveling: this is so healing! 🚶【One-Day Intensive Route】 Kofuku-ji Temple → Yoshikien Garden → Nara National Museum → Todai-ji Temple → Mizutani Chaya → Kasuga Taisha Shrine → Mount Wakakusa 【Must-Visit Attractions】 🔸 Yoshikien Garden: Free garden! Maple leaves + teahouse look like a Japanese drama scene, and the best part is fewer tourists, perfect for photos 🔸 Todai-ji Temple: 800 yen entrance fee is totally worth it! The world’s largest wooden structure, seeing it in person is truly stunning 🔸 Mount Wakakusa: 150 yen to watch the sunset! Feed the deer and take iconic photos (watch out for deer grabbing your bag!) 🔸 Nara National Museum: 700 yen to see the giant Kongorikishi statues, wooden Buddha sculptures are breathtakingly beautiful 🔸 Kofuku-ji Temple: 500 yen World Cultural Heritage site, the five-story pagoda is under renovation but the surroundings are still beautiful 🔸 Kasuga Taisha Shrine: Feed deer along the way while visiting the shrine, the nearby Mizutani Chaya has stunning maple leaves 🚇【Transportation Tips】 From Osaka, take the Kintetsu Nara Line. In the evening, from Mount Wakakusa, walk 300m to catch a bus directly to Kintetsu Station. Using Suica/ICOCA cards is super convenient! 🍱 After touring, be sure to grab a meal near Nara Station! So many delicious options it’s hard to choose! Honestly, Nara is really underrated! Such a healing place deserves more than just half a day! Which spot do you most want to check out? Let me know in the comments~
