Nara Park,Japan

Nara Park is a massive park at the foot of Mt. Wakakusa full of very playful and friendly deer. The natural setting includes temples set in unspoiled woods and a lake full of turtles and carp.

A scenic spot of autumn leaves and deer. I went there for the first time, but there are more deer than I imagined. I was surprised to walk normally on the general road. I thought he was greeting me by shaking his head up and down, but it seems that it means give me deer rice crackers. I was healed by the wonderful scenery and the cute deer.
