About 72 Seasons Nara

Japan’s ancient capital, Nara, breathes with over 1,300 years of history. The birthplace of imperial Japan, Nara is filled with ancient shrines, temples, festivals and events. In addition, you can enjoy natural foods that reflect the subtle changes in the seasons. Nara’s rich nature has long been admired, mentioned often in Japan’s oldest collection of poetry, the Manyoshu, which was written over 1200 years ago, and is the home to a wealth of national treasures and important cultural properties. Our app enables you to learn more of this bountiful place, and tune your travels to the seasons. The main page updates approximately every 5 days, bringing you information for your trip. Also, the “Seasonal Adventure” section gives you suggestions for your travels for each season - spring, summer, autumn and winter.
