’23.12.3 二月堂、二月堂裏参道、浮見堂にて

@masachi さん @neko-no-oto さんと巡る晩秋ツアー、最終回です。見ていただいた皆様、長々とありがとうございました😌

陽が落ちると二月堂の常夜灯が点き、辺りもするすると暗くなります。我々も裏参道から大仏殿・南大門を抜けて残照の浮見堂を観覧してから駐車場へと帰ります。

･･久し振りに朝から日没まで公園内を散策しました。その日のお風呂が身に染みたのは言うまでもございません♨😆

masachiさん、neko-no-otoさん、お疲れ様でした。とても楽しかったです😉。また行きましょうねｗ

Nigatsudo l Hall...

For some context --- ""At the commencement of the Nara period (AD 710-784), the practice of moving the capital with each change in emperor was abandoned and the city became the first permanent capital of Japan. During this time, the most significant shift in Japanese culture was the infusion of Buddhism. Shōmu, the 45th emperor of Japan, was known to care greatly for his subjects and believed that the best way to promote peace was to integrate Buddhist teachings into his rule. His enthusiasm led to the construction of grand temples and shrines, many of which are still standing today and are UNESCO listed. Japanese art flourished in the Nara era and many regard it as the country’s most significant cultural period."

Tag 32. 04.08.2023

Rehe in Nara. Der zweite Tagesausflug unserer Osaka-Tournee ging nach Nara, eine niedliche Stadt östlich von der Hauptmetropole Osaka. Die Zugfahrt lief reibungslos (nachdem wir erst komplett ungestört in den Frauenwagon liefen und von 50 japanischen Damen schräg angeguckt worden - ja, den Wagon haben wir an der nächsten Haltestelle gewechselt…) und nach Ankunft aßen wir Frühstück in einer Bäckerei im Stadtzentrum.

Wir liefen anschließend Richtung Nara-Park. Schon auf halbem Weg sah man Dutzende zahme Rehe entlang der Straße. Für 200 Yen kauften die Touris links und rechts Plätzchen, um die Rehe zu füttern. Verrückt. Im Anschluss liefen wir zum Todaji Tempel, das Wahrzeichen Naras, wo drinnen eine riesige Statue des Buddhas stand. Die Touris standen Schlange, um reinzukommen, trotzdem floss der Verkehr. Im Anschluss liefen wir hoch zum Todai-ji Nigatsudo - ein super Ausblick über Nara (plus frisches Trinkwasser). Danach liefen wir durch die benachbarten Wälder und schauten uns die verschiedenen Monumente an, die alle als UNESCO Weltkulturerbe eingestuft sind. Stets liefen wir zwischen den behutsamen und hungrigen Augen der Rehe und schwitzten uns die T-shirts vom Leib.

Zum Mittagessen gingen wir in ein billiges Soba-Restaurant, eine alternative Nudel-Variante zu Udon-Ramen. Webster bestellte Tofu, leider enttäuschend, und Wilson ein zufriedenstellendes Rindfleisch-Ramen. Danach kauften wir uns Mochi (gummiartiger japanischer Reiskuchen) vom berühmten Nakatanidou-Laden, die Performance verpassten wir allerdings. Das Mochi schmeckte nicht schlecht, aber war auch nichts besonderes. Unsere zerquetschte und vom Frühstück übrig gebliebene Zimtschnecke schmeckte tausend Mal besser. Die Zugfahrt zurück nach Osaka war unauffällig, Webster schlief während Wilson mit seiner neuen 10GB SIM-Karte (altes Datenvolumen aufgebraucht) Instagram unsicher machte. Jetzt gehen wir gleich zum Abendessen und packen unsere Koffer für die morgige Weiterreise nach Hiroshima. Gute Nacht!

Day 32. August 4th, 2023.

Deer in Nara. The second day trip of our Osaka tour took us to Nara, a charming town east of the main metropolis, Osaka. The train journey went smoothly (after we initially walked completely undisturbed into the women's carriage and were stared at oddly by 50 Japanese ladies - yes, we changed carriages at the next stop…) and upon arrival, we had breakfast at a bakery in the city centre.

We then walked towards Nara Park. Even halfway there, we saw dozens of tame deer along the road. For 200 yen, the tourists bought biscuits on the left and right to feed the deer. Crazy. Afterwards, we walked to Todaiji Temple, Nara's landmark, where a huge statue of Buddha stood inside. The tourists queued to get in, yet the traffic flowed. Following that, we walked up to Todai-ji Nigatsudo - a great view over Nara (plus fresh drinking water). Then we walked through the nearby forests and explored the various monuments, all classified as UNESCO World Heritage sites. We always walked amidst the gentle and hungry eyes of the deer, sweating through our t-shirts.

For lunch, we went to an inexpensive Soba restaurant, an alternative noodle variation to Udon-Ramen. Webster ordered Tofu, unfortunately disappointing, and Wilson ordered a satisfying beef ramen. Afterward, we bought Mochi (chewy Japanese rice cakes) from the famous Nakatanidou shop, although we missed the performance. The Mochi wasn't bad in taste, but it wasn't anything special either. Our squashed cinnamon roll leftover from breakfast tasted a thousand times better. The train ride back to Osaka was uneventful; Webster slept while Wilson, armed with his new 10GB SIM card (old data limit used up), took over Instagram. Now we're about to head to dinner and pack our bags for tomorrow's journey to Hiroshima. Good night!
