Nara Park is combination of green land and woodland that spreads east into the hill side. One of the shrines we wanted to visit, and view was Kasuga Taisha, starting at the bottom end of the Nara Park, the shrines was situated about 20mins into the wooded hillside. We walked along a steadily climbing path through the wooded area, where there were many dear roaming freely eventually coming to a Torii gate and the start of the shrine’s grounds. Most noticeably were the many lanterns that were situated both side of the paths, which was amazing site too see and quite rare to see so many in one spot! Kasuga Taisha is famous of its many lanterns the lead to the shrine and situated along the paths that surround it. The lanterns have been donated by worshipers over the many years and are only lit twice a year during two lantern festivals.
