Begin your day from VIP Lounge in Osaka or Kyoto.
Your journey starts in Nara, Japan's ancient capital. Explore Nara Park, where friendly, free-roaming deer welcome you, embodying the city's charm. Stroll through this historic park before visiting Todai-ji Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage site and home to the 15-meter-tall Great Buddha statue in the world’s largest wooden structure.
Next, Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. Walk amidst towering bamboo stalks and enjoy the calming atmosphere as sunlight filters through the trees. Free time for lunch (note that lunch may shift to Fushimi Inari depending on traffic).
Continue your exploration at Kinkaku-ji Temple, also known as the Golden Pavilion. Marvel at its gold-leaf exterior and serene garden.
Finally, visit Fushimi Inari Shrine, famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates leading up Mount Inari. Each gate represents a prayer to Inari Okami, the deity of prosperity and safety.
At day’s end, return to Osaka or Kyoto.
