Stone lanterns and vermilion. The walk climbs. Same Nara day as Todai-ji — do not add Kyoto.
Best time
Morning after the gates open. New Year and festivals are separate.
How to go
From Kintetsu-Nara cross the park to the east end, then uphill. ICOCA usually taps local trains. An Osaka Metro day pass covers neither private rail nor JR. Limited express follows that day's notice.
Tips
- · Stone lanterns and vermilion. The walk climbs. Same Nara day as Todai-ji — do not add Kyoto.
- · How much of the stone-lantern grounds is open follows that day's notice. It shares a Nara day with Todai-ji. Do not add Kyoto.
