Todaiji Temple is so awesome. I remember the first time I went there. I had a professor in college (awesome guy btw) who told the class about his trip there when he was doing research and he told us how massive the temple was. He showed us a picture and pointed out how the people looked like ants in front of the temple. I believed him that it was large of course but I figured maybe it was just the photo's perspective making it look larger. Oh boy, was I in for a treat when I actually got to the temple. It was seriously MASSIVE and the incense burner that he mentioned was out front as well so it was cool that I got to experience all of the things that he was able to experience in the past. I guess that's one thing that makes historical places like this so extraordinary- being able to connect with the past without actually being there. I really loved all the small models there as well lol! I'll certainly never forget my trip to Todaiji and I'd love to visit Nara again when I get the chance.

Man the autumn colors sure were beautiful this year. Hopefully they're just as nice this year. I have no doubt in my mind that they will be. It's been a while since I went to Nara, but I always love watching the videos of deer chasing people around for crackers 😂 I've yet to go to Hasedera Temple though, it seems like it's not as well known as some of the other ones. Not sure why though, as it looks absolutely beautiful with all the natural scenery surrounding it. The pagoda looks really cool as well. I'm a huge fan of pagodas for some reason though lol. The 3rd picture of the temple kind of makes it look like the common photo you see of Kiyomizudera, but mirrored on the left side instead of the right. Just an interesting observation I had.
