Must go! Unmissable experience!

Great experience, Nara is incredible! The giant Bhudda is unbelievable! I’ve been to many temples in Southeast Asia and was never as impressed as I was with this one. Our guide was great, my only constructive criticism is that the trip should have been a tidy bit longer, maybe another hour. Due to the long explanations from the guide we had very short time by ourselves to walk at the park and interact with the deers. It felt rushed. I (personal opinion, maybe) enjoy my free time more than following a guide and a group and stopping every minute for an explanation. At the end, we walked out from the group and I’m glad we did or we would not have had time to walk at the park.
