    Nara: The Deer Roams Freely

    Where can you find friendly deer in Japan? Nara. Located in Kansai, Nara is a popular tourist spot. Besides its many attractions, what seems to attract people is the many deer that exist in Nara. These deer roam about freely and are rather friendly. They’ll approach you, even bow to you in hopes for food. While the bulk of them are friendly, it’s best to keep in mind that they are still wild animals at the end of the day.

    To Miyajima Island

    People come to Miyajima Island for its floating tori. It’s a tori that thrills people simply because you can actually walk to the tori when the tide is down. The thing is, Miyajima Island is home to more than just Itsukushima Shrine’s tori. There’s quite a number of things you can see and do by foot here. As always, I didn’t get to do and see everything I wanted to while I was on this island but here’s what I encountered while on the grounds of Miyajima Island.
