Super fun to play with the deer . First bow, they'll bow back, feed them a deer biscuit and you can pet them on the head. Watch our for deer who sneak attack from behind and bite your pockets!

Check out the biggest Buddha statue in Japan! I heard that this rebuild is only 60% of the original one! Wow! Oh, yeah: one of the deer bite me in the ass! Beware! ;-)

Magic place, where a huge number of young deer roam freely all around the park and the neighborhood . They are cute , a little shy, friendly and always hungry. :D

Amazing place, definitely somewhere you should go visit whilst in Osaka. It's super cool to see & feed the deer . The park is also very with lots of temples .

5 minute walk from Kintetsu Nara Station or a about a 20 minute walk from JR Nara Station. Alternatively, the park can be reach by bus . There are multiple stop around the park

Those deers are hungry, they will try to eat your backpack straps and your shirts and anything else that look edible to them.

Nara park with deer i think marvelous place to enjoy with free entrance fee and you can enjoy to touch & selfie with deer . I never go such a place very tame animal and open area !

Such a cool park to play with some deers . They are literally everywhere (and so is their poop). Get some deer cookies to feed em and make em bow for the food. They swarm so be careful.

The parts away from the main road are peaceful and beautiful. Get as far away from the tourist , towards the bigger ponds .

Such a beautiful park . The earlier in the morning the better. By noon this park is filled with thousands of tourists .

Try putting one of the deer crackers in your mouth, kneel down, and let the deer come and take it from you. Don't forget to have someone take a video!

Bow to the deer , they will bow back, feed biscuit , repeat. Don't show all your biscuits . The deer can get a little head butt-y.

watch out for the deer . they may look cute but they eat whatever they see. (friendly advise: hide your maps before they laid their eyes on them)

A lovely, peaceful place - get away from the main roads and high up into the lush park . It's quiet and beautiful, and the deer there won't be as aggressive. Be smart and don't feed around a herd!

If you are here to play with deers , keep walking past the spots full of tourists , especially at the very entrance. Further away there are tons of hungry & curious deers waiting just for you! :)

It's worth heading up to Nigatsu-do for great views out over the shrines . Stay in the park until dusk and you'll have the place to yourself when all the tourists depart making it even more serene.

Amazing experience with all the wild deers that roam the park . If you want them near you, purchase a pack of crackers for 150 yen and they will become your friend forever!

This was my favorite thing to do!! Feeding deer under Sakura blossoms was magical and so fun! I did meet a rambunctious deer who bit my thigh when it got jealous of me feeding another deer so beware!

Caution! The deers do bite/gnaw.Especially if you have biscuits in your hand&there's a bunch swarming over you&you are outnumbered.A friend has bite marks as souvenir on the stomach.

The deer are tame and accustomed to tourists , but they get excited when it comes to eating so be warned! The deer can be aggressive, chase after you or nip at your shirt if you don’t feed them.

Been here twice and I don't think I'll ever get bored of it! Wild deers everywhere, buy them crackers if you want. So many temples and shrines to visit. Good for a one day visit.

Love the deer but watch out they are little devils if you’re holding food. We saw one tourist get bitten on the bum!

Loved coming here and seeing the deer and large buddhist temple . Biggest bronze buddha in all japan

Beautiful park , and while it's amazing to have deers roam freely and unafraid of humans, keep in mind that they're live real animals, not toys or decorations. Respect them as such.

Deer everywhere oh my! Beautiful park , definitely walk through the whole of it and see all of the shrines if you can!

The deer of nara park are wild animals. They can occasionally attack people. So, please be careful.

Amazing experience! Awesome to see deer so close and be able to touch them. Lots of little carts with cookies to buy for the deer if you're feeling lucky.

Note that the deers are not tame! They can bite, kick, butt and knock down any visitors! So your safety is at your own risk! brought cakes and it was stolen by them deers hehehehehe

There are deer literally all over the park , all the way up to the temple . Don't just stop at the entrance by the road and think that's it. There's hundreds of them scattered around, if not more.

If you are polite to the deer and offer them a deer biscuit , they will often bow before taking it. At least until you're mobbed by 20 at a time.

Lots of temples for visiting & a walk in the woods, surronded by more then a thousand sacred deer . Loved the visit

A lot of group coming in the weekend, make sure that you come earlier or on weekdays.. The gorgeous deers will welcoming you as you arrived at Nara. Love it!

There are over 1,200 deer in Nara Park . Don't forget to offer them a deer biscuit — and watch your fingers!

Deers are adorable! They are all around you. You can feed them and take pictures with them.

The park is beautiful, but it can be so crowded these days. Also the deer are so used to getting biscuits from visitors- they're quite aggressive now.

Beware of the male deers they can get aggressive and bite

don't forget to buy some biscuits to feed deers , 150yen for 10 pieces (disc-like). divide one piece to four parts then you can play with them very long time. having fun!

The deer are tame & friendly . You can feed, pet & take selfie with them. Deer biscuit for feeding cost 150¥. Watch where you step though, deer poop is omnipresent

Deers are adorable, but beware of their droppings! After park visit tour shows will be very messy ????????

Incredible place with all the deers walking around you. You should come at least once to experience it :)

Lots of wild deers in the park . Deers are aggressive and be aware of them. They will run toward you and hit you with no reason.

Love the deers . They are very friendly and would nudged you for snacks . So be careful if you have edible things with you.

Wonderfully amazing. Many shops are there. Deers are wondering freely.

Beautiful park with a lot of friendly deers to feed and pet

You real get to interact with loads of deers ! Temples are huge and amazing too! Must in Japan.

Feed the deer . It's worth buying the cookies from a vendor for 150 yen.

The antlers of the deers were cut the time we went. Be careful where your belongings touch the deers . They might bite. Otherwise they're very tame and cute ????
