Top Things to do in Nara
What to do and see in Nara, Kinki: The Best Ancient Ruins
June 6, 2021 Fernanda Pittenger
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.
