As soon as I walked into Nara Park, before I even started exploring, I was already surrounded by deer. The moment you have deer crackers in your hand, they lock onto you right away. Some keep following you around and even gently nudge you to hurry up and feed them. I thought I was the one feeding the deer, but in the end, it was basically the deer chasing me.
It was a little chaotic, but so much fun. It’s definitely a classic Nara experience you have to try!
Honestly, Nara Park is super famous!
But it was kind of scary. Buying crackers to feed the deer is basically a must, but the pressure is intense.
They keep surrounding you, and it feels like they might jump on you at any moment.
Also, for some reason I thought there would be giant Buddhas all over Nara lol. Heiji was so cool in that Conan movie hahaha.
It was really funny seeing the deer bowing to people, and then so many people would bow back.
But honestly, I felt like there were almost as many people as deer.
That was actually kind of overwhelming. There were seriously tons of people.
Still, I feel like this is one of those places everyone adds to their itinerary when they go to Osaka.
So much fun! You can interact with the adorable deer and feed them!
If you feed the deer crackers, you’ll get surrounded—it’s kind of scary but also hilarious. Some of the deer are really gentle, and some have a ton of attitude. If you’re not paying attention, they’ll start nibbling on your clothes.
Being able to see the deer up close is such a wonderful feeling!
If you're holding senbei, the deer will swarm around you—especially the males, who might even nudge you with their butts! The senbei cost 200 yen.
The deer will only come up to you if you have the senbei snacks in your hand. They're pretty realistic about it!
The park is really spacious and the air is fresh. It's a perfect spot to relax.
This is my kids' favorite place! Not only can you feed the deer, but you can also get up close and watch them. It's really a lot of fun.
A beautiful park with lots of adorable deer roaming around. They're definitely the highlight here.
