Nara is a small town close to Kyoto or Osaka, so it's a bit far from Tokyo if you want to go there without passing by these cities.
Very typical, ideal for chilling, you will be able to walk near the thousand deer in freedom in the city. A guaranteed change of scenery when you arrive from a less traditional Japanese city :).
But Nara is not only that, it's also one of the places with a local version of traditional sushi, as well as a place of history and religion, we'll let you discover that ;).

The park of Nara shelters several interesting things: temples, 600 hectares of park, up to 1200 Sika deer which obviously participate in the tourist aspect of the city.
2 temples are present in the park of Nara: Tôdai-Ji (which is really huge) and Kôfuku-ji (which is closer to the city on the outskirts of the park). These temples are part of the visit of the city park.
These sushi rolled in a persimmon leaf are Nara's specialty. They were originally wrapped in this way to be able to make the journey to this city from the sea to preserve the fish. For us the best sushi you will eat in Japan! A lot of people pass by and it's a shame!
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
