    Nara Nara-shi Sanjohinokimachi 17-15

    お手軽でおいしい天ぷら屋さんです。いつも混んでいる感じがします。 天丼のセットをいただきましたが、天ぷらはさくっとしていて大変おいしかったです。 お店の大きさに対して、とても繁盛していて、かつ待合スペースが狭いので、混雑しているときはちょっとカオスになります。 が、大変お勧めのお店だと思います。

Nara Areas

With a reputation almost as stellar as that of Kyoto, Nara is a must-visit for those searching for the remains of "traditional Japan." The largely green Nara city holds the majority of the prefecture’s treasures, such as the iconic Todai-ji Temple, in which a 15-meter tall Great Buddha sits, and Nara Park, where deer flock to befriend passersby. While mountains are by no means hard to come by in this area, for hiking with a reward, head to the Kii Mountains’ Yoshino district in spring, when the hillsides put on an impressive display of white and pink cherry blossoms.
