Nara Park: Top-Down Deer Encounter & Shrine Visit

“If you're planning to go to Nara to hang out with deer, don't make the same mistake that 80% of people make by just taking the train to Nara station and hiking uphill. Instead, take a bus to Kasuga Taisha Shrine, then stroll downhill through the park.”

The main train station in Nara. The creator advises against hiking from here directly to the park entrance due to the uphill walk and crowded conditions. Look for a lady at the station who provides bus information and maps.

Feed and pet deer while strolling downhill
Once you've enjoyed the beauty of Kasuga Taisha Shrine and its respectful deer, grab some crackers from the vending machine (they're $6 a box) and take a leisurely stroll downhill through Nara Park. You can feed and pet the deer along the way, enjoying the nature and peace as you descend. Once you reach the bottom, you'll find shops and restaurants to relax in before heading back.
