Nara

Be Drawn Into Ancient Japan

Nara Prefecture is the former capital of Japan and serves as the gateway to many historically significant temples, including three of the country’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The region is known to be frequently visited by tourists, but there are plenty of places to explore away from the crowds. The ancient trail of Yamanobe no Michi is a part of Japan's oldest road, the Shinkaido, and many ancient tombs, temples, and rest stops can be found along the way.
