Kyoto & Nara Day 2: Bamboo, Deer & Omakase

“On our second day, we visited the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, then took a day trip to Nara Park for an insane battle with the deer, and finished with a delicious omakase dinner back in Kyoto.”

Feeding and interacting with Nara deer
At Nara Park, the deer are literally just roaming around everywhere! You can buy crackers to feed them, but be warned, they can get a bit aggressive and will follow you. They even bow for food, which is super cute, but they might also kick you or get poo on your shirt if you're not careful. It's an insane battle, but peak happiness and a wild experience!

Omakase dinner with milk sake
evening
After a crazy train ride, we finally made it to our omakase dinner. The food was delicious, especially the fresh toro. I even got a little drunk on just one cup of orange wine! The highlight was definitely the milk sake they served at the end with melon – it was insane!

Fortune telling at Kitsune Shrine
At the Kitsune Shrine, you can get your fortune told with special papers. You put the paper in water, and it's supposed to reveal your fortune. Mine said it won't be easy, but to have faith! It's a fun, unique experience, but apparently, my friend and I got opposite fortunes, so we can't travel together!
