The Big Buddha

Today we took a day trip to Nara & crossed off some Unesco sites plus the Big Buddha was on our want to see list. We managed to see 6 out of 8 sites before we ran out of time. So to be brief this was our day

Kohfukuji Temple

Kasuga Yaisha Shrine

Todaiji Temple

Yakushiji Temple

Toshodaiji Temple (we were too late to see in this one bit we still got a look at the outside)

72F52C74-3717-4E6A-9039-12422CE96416

We walked to the first few temples (yes we’ve well & truly done our steps for today) and you go through the deer park. The deer just roam the open spaces, people feed them, pat them, take stupid selfies......

Tomorrow we are having a proper travel day something like 5.5 hours train travel so I don’t think there will be a blog entry.
