Top 10 Visitor Centers in Nara, Kinki

July 13, 2021 Etsuko Causey

Thirteen hundred years ago, Nara (then Heiju-kyu) was the imperial capital of Japan. "Old Japan" is still easy to spot here, from Great Buddha Hall to traditional ryokans and the serene Isuien garden. Travelers rave about walking tours of Nara, particularly in the historic Naramachi merchant area.

スタッフはとてもフレンドリーでした。奈良の可能スポットやハラルの食べ物を提供するレストランの情報も教えてくれました。祈り室も広くて綺麗でした。ムスリム旅行者にとってはとてもありがたいです。 The staff was very friendly! He taught me the best way to stroll around Nara with a sightseeing map they have which was very helpful for my first trip to Nara.I also used the free storage and the prayer room they have. The prayer room was extremely clean and spacious! There is a place for doing the Wudhu too, so it is very convenient for muslim who is traveling to Nara.

Nara City Tourist Information Center

Reviewed By YTCHENG - Hong Kong, China

Nara City Tourist Information Center is located in the Old JR Train Station. The structure itself is nice and attractive while the staff there are helpful and be able to converse in English. For visitors, they can enter the center and get the travel assistance here. At the time when we visited Nara in early Nov., there was an open bazaar at the space in front of the center. There were stalls where the local people sold the local products and handicrafts. It was quite nice to have another joyful environment in front of the JR station.
