We visited Nara, Japan and expected to see deer... but we found so much more in the city too! So, we made a vlog of some of the best things to do in Nara, which includes the deer park, but also includes some of Nara's unique snacks, beautiful temples & shrines, and an amazing cultural experience in the original capital of Japan!

We're Brandi & Alan, fulltime travelers and creators since 2018. We post fun vlogs and informative guides to both document our travels and help you on your own journey.
