Itinerary
Experience the mystical charm of Nara after dark on this guided night tour. Starting from Kintetsu Nara Station, you'll walk through the quiet streets of Japan's ancient capital, free from the daytime crowds. Visit the famous Tōdai-ji Temple, home to the Great Buddha, and enjoy its peaceful exterior under the moonlight. Then ascend to Nigatsu-dō Hall, beautifully lit and open at night, offering breathtaking views of the city below. Along the way, encounter sacred deer wandering the quiet paths, and hear their calls echo through the shrine forests. Your guide will share stories of Nara's 1,300-year history, its spiritual traditions, and the significance of the temples and shrines you pass. With moss-covered stone paths, flickering lanterns, and the serene sounds of nature, this tour offers a rare, intimate glimpse into the spiritual heart of Japan — a truly unforgettable experience.
