Introduction

I was born and raised in beloved Nara, a place I hold dear. Nara, older than Kyoto as a former capital, is a charming place where ancient history and culture continue to thrive. I'd love to introduce you to the profound charm of this old capital - from the UNESCO World Heritage temples and pilgrimage routes to the beautiful nature represented by the cherry blossoms of Mount Yoshino and the autumn leaves of Muro, the delightful restaurants and sake breweries scattered throughout the old town, and the tranquil, refreshing hot springs of Totsukawa with their natural spring waters. Let's take our time and savor it all to your heart's content.
