Nara, temples and deer
2009 July 10
The first one is the Daibutsuden, the main building of one of the buddhist temples, the biggest wooden building in the world. Hover for the rest ! Hints : tori and sacred trees = shinto, pagodas (originally, these are tombs) and incense = buddhist.
Ah, I read about the Todai-ji. Also I saw some of those guardian kings, but not in Japan
I especially like Kasuga Taisha and its tree, and the path with many rocks
Thank you for sharing the pictures 
Have you seen any Sika deer?
Oh, it is a deer in that third picture! lol
So you’re more shintoist than buddhist
and you’re welcome, I like brag-…sharing !
Yes it is ! It looks forlorn but the deer are absolutely everywhere in Nara Park, you just can’t miss them. They even wander in shops and chase grade schoolers around
