For Japanese, Nara is their soul hometown.
As the first capital, it prospered to the highest.
But it was abandoned suddenly.
Full of historic places, Nara is what is called a treasure place of history.
I love Nara and its people.
Here in this place, you can see the original Japanese atmosphere more than 1000 years ago.
People have kept historical heritages. It deserves admiration.
Highlights:
Nara Park: 1400 wild deer in the park
Three world heritage sites
Todaiji temple, Kasuga Taisya Shrine, Kofukuji Temple
National Treasure Buddha Statues
Ganjoji Temple:
One of Japan's oldest building constructed 1300 years ago

I highly recommend Masaki. He show us around Ōsaka. Masaki’s English is very good. He is very knowledgeable! We will make sure to recommend him with our friends. Thank you! Thank you! Masaki we really enjoyed our Ōsaka tour. Julio & Teresa
Masaki could not have worked harder. He took us to all of the places we wanted to see and tailored the itinerary perfectly. He is full of knowledge and good humour. We did not simply see the sights, we learned about the history of Zen Buddhism, meditation practice and breathing and Japanese philosophy. After the tour was over, he sent us over 70 excellent photos that he had taken during the day, which is a great souvenir. This was a first class day out and we highly recommend Masaki.
Hi Christian, Thank you for sending a good message. I'm very happy to share my knowledge about the meditation method with you. Did Anita start meditation today? No matter how short your time is, practice it in succession. Practice makes perfect. By the way, Christian you are sure to be the best son in the world. See you again. Masaki
Masaki is a very passionate guide who takes his time to explain every aspects of the culture; he made my stay in Kyoto very memorable
Hi Catherine, Thank you for a good review. Yes, as you say, it was a very unique tour indeed. This encounter is a gift from God. Probably both of us are a good person. See you again. Masaki
Our tours with Masaki could not have been better!
Hi Doctor Karin, Thank you for sending a message. History, culture, traditions, medicine, chi exercise and deep breathing. It's a wonderful time. Zen is practical Buddhism. Hope it will open and deepen a new world. Say hello to Sharon.
Masaki is an excellent guide. Being a previous history teacher, his knowledge allowed us to appreciated the sites much more. While English is his second language, he was understandable. We only had 10 hours during our cruise to see Osaka and the surrounding area, but he catered to the destinations and activities that we wanted in the short amount of time allowed. He also had good and prompt communication prior to arriving there, answering all of our questions and helping us tweak our itinerary.
Hello Clifton, Thank you for sending a friendly message. Going around Kyoto and Osaka in this limited time must have been demanding for your mother and older members. I appreciate your cooperation. Thank you again. This time we visited only the entrance of Kansai. Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka have a lot of attractions. Next time, stay in Kyoto and enjoy its night life and beautiful cherry blossoms. Please say hello to your members. Masaki
