Nara: Come for the temples, stay because the deer ate you

We had heard there were deer in Nara, but didn't imagine nearly as many as we saw. They were practically everywhere. 

Children and old ladies should especially be aware

This man started to feed the deer and was subsequently devoured


The Daibutsu in Nara was larger even than the statue in Kamakura. Housed in a huge chamber for protection, it is by far one of the most impressive cultural sights in Japan.
