There are many recommended spots to see autumn leaves in Nara! This time, I would like to introduce "Ryugai-ji Temple (Okadera Temple)" in Asuka Village, Nara Prefecture. It is commonly known as Okadera. The only problem here is the parking issue! There is a parking lot that is not directly related to Okadera Temple, and it costs money, but there are also parking lots where you can park for free, so I would like to introduce it together with tips on how to get around the parking lot! ⛩️About Okadera Temple⛩️-------------------- Okadera Temple is full of things to see in autumn leaves, but it is also famous as a spot for hydrangeas! It has a history of 1300 years, and is Japan's first place for exorcising evil spirits! In addition to creating an atmosphere of being enveloped in a mystical space, this spot also puts an emphasis on photogenic places, such as filling the hand washing area with marbles to create a photogenic look, even during the hydrangea season✨The stairs surrounded by maple leaves also look picturesque if you include people in the photo, so I highly recommend it📸Sorry that there are no people in the photo🙇The best time to see the autumn leaves is late November🍁If you're going to Nara, make sure to check this out💁　　🅿️Parking Tips🅿️------------There is an official Okadera parking lot and an unofficial one here, and everyone tends to park in the latter one! It's a parking lot facing a major street, and people are directing you by saying "come here, come here," so you end up going in without thinking💦But be careful! Don't be lured into parking there⚠️The parking fee is 500 yen💰I wouldn't have any complaints if I was charged for parking in a parking lot operated by Okadera, but they guide me as if to say, "This is Okadera's parking lot!", so I'm not happy about it🙅♂️It's a parking lot that is properly connected to Okadera, so there's no problem parking here, but it's a little further away than the official parking lot, so if you want to park a little closer and for free, I recommend heading for the parking lot shown in the 9th image💡By the way, you can get to the official parking lot by following the directions set in your navigation system, but the road narrows at the end and becomes steep at the very end, so please be careful when driving⚠️--------That's all! What do you think! The leaves are turning red from now on. I'm sure you're all making plans, but please make sure to stop by here too 🚗💨~~~~~~~Information~~~~~~📍#Okadera Address: 806 Oka, Asukamura, Takaichigun, Nara Prefecture Access: Take Nara Kotsu bus from the east exit of Kintetsu Kashiharajingu-mae Station, get off at "Okadera-mae" and walk for about 10 minutes, then take a 1-hour car ride from Nara Station Visiting hours: 8:30-17:00 Admission fee: 400 yen for adults, 300 yen for high school students, 200 yen for middle school students Recommended point: The marble water basin is right after you enter~ ...
