Description

It is a bilingual tour, in Spanish and/or Portuguese. Nara was the first capital of Japan, before Kyoto, and the end point of the Silk Road. An experienced guide will take you through trails unknown to ordinary tourists. The city preserves numerous Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines. You will learn about the differences and similarities between the two religions, comparing them with Christianity from an academic perspective. I am sure this tour will enrich your knowledge and curiosity!
