Day 21 - Nara: Polite Deer? It’s Nara, Obviously!

Nara Park (奈良公園) Polite deer bowing for food, using crosswalks, and generally being adorable—what’s not to love?
Todai-ji Museum (東大寺ミュージアム) Learned a lot about Buddhism and the region. Sadly, no pictures allowed—guess you’ll have to visit yourself!
Tōdai-ji (東大寺) Home to the Great Buddha and the largest wooden structure in the world. Truly awe-inspiring!
Fried Food Adventure Made our own sesame sauce and enjoyed fried goodness—except the shrimp (not for me).
Check-In No human interaction required. A win in my book!
Kotatsu + Katsu Curry Ended the day under a cozy kotatsu with a warm bowl of katsu curry. Ultimate chill vibes unlocked!

But here are some pictures that prove why this place is still a geeky paradise! Meguro River Minna no Illumination Who says cherry blossoms are only for spring?
