All Reviews of Kasugataisha Shrine

Kasugataisha Shrine is located within Nara Park. Its vermilion buildings and ancient lanterns create a beautiful setting rich in history. As you walk toward the shrine, you'll see adorable deer roaming freely, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. The atmosphere feels both solemn and peaceful, offering a welcome break from the busyness of everyday life.

Kasugataisha Shrine really has a magical feel. As soon as you step onto the approach, the stone lanterns and forest scenery create such a relaxing atmosphere.

The most fun part is that after just a short walk, deer will come over like they’re “on patrol.” They’re not afraid of people at all, and they definitely know how to find the camera!

Besides praying at the shrine, don’t forget to take a photo with Nara’s little deer. Just remember, they’ll be checking to see if you have deer crackers in your hand. Put your things away after the photo, or they’ll be even more enthusiastic than you are!

From the moment you step onto the approach to Kasugataisha Shrine, you're surrounded by lush forest and weathered stone lanterns. At the end of the path, the vermilion corridor appears. If it weren’t for all the tourists around, it would almost feel like traveling back in time!

Following the visitor route, we came to Fujinami-no-ya. It’s a small, completely dark space lit by the glow of countless lanterns. I can only imagine how much more spectacular it must be during the Mantoro festival.

The long red corridor, stone lanterns, and steps are really impressive. The nearby deer also catch the attention of visitors.

The bright vermilion buildings and all the lanterns are pretty impressive. It looks fantastic.

The sounds of nature, adorable deer everywhere, and rows of stone lanterns—if you're in Nara, you just have to visit Kasugataisha Shrine.

The deer here seem a bit pitiful since hardly anyone feeds them.
