🦌✨ Nara - The Fairytale Land of Deer & Temples! 🌿🌸
Nara was my most anticipated stop in Kansai—and it did NOT disappoint! Here, deer aren't just in parks; they roam streets, shops, even temples, and cross roads like tiny urban citizens 🚦🦌. The harmony between humans and animals feels straight out of a storybook! 1️⃣ Weather Alert! ☀️💦 July is scorching! We trekked from Osaka to Nara Park → Kasuga Taisha → Mt. Wakakusa—all outdoors, leaving us drenched in sweat. Pack stamina (and a towel)! 2️⃣ Deer Survival Guide 🦌⚠️ Hide those deer crackers! 🍪 Hold them loosely, and they’ll mob you (politely… with bows!). They eat EVERYTHING—maps, cash, wrappers… even my skirt got a nibble! 😱 Watch for moms with fawns—they’re extra assertive (I got a gentle belly bump!). 3️⃣ Mt. Wakakusa Pro Tips 🌄 Sunset is late (~7 PM)—bring patience (and a long skirt—ants/deer poop galore!). Ticks on deer:/ Feed cautiously! #NaraMagic #DeerWhisperer #SummerInJapan
