Isuien Garden, Nara ✿ 奈良市 依水園 ✿ Japan As It Truly Is
Just a stone's throw from the Nara Great Buddha, Isuien is a gem ready for discovery. Come see what the tourist hordes miss.
The land was once a sub-temple of the Kofukuji, and from 1670 was used as a home of a wealthy tanner. The eastern garden (seen first) is the oldest, and the western garden with the Nandaimon Gate and Nara hills in the background, was created in 1899. Nearby is also the Yoshikien Garden, which is also worth seeing.
Isuien has a rather pricey entrance fee of 900 yen, but Yoshikien is free for foreign tourists, so if you see both Japanese gardens, it does all balance out.
The garden is open 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM (last entry 4 PM).
Open daily in April, May, October & November, otherwise closed on Tuesdays. If Tuesday is a national holiday, then closed on Wednesday.

Nara Isuien Garden Japan GoPro
Support our channel :
Isuien (依水園) is an attractive Japanese garden with a variety of features, such as the use of Todaiji Temple's Nandaimon Gate and Mount Wakakusayama as borrowed scenery. Isuien means garden founded on water, and the garden's name is derived from the fact that its ponds are fed by the small adjacent Yoshikigawa River. The Yoshikien Garden is located just on the other side of the river.
Isuien is divided into two parts, a front garden and a rear garden, with a number of tea houses scattered throughout. The front garden has a longer history, dating back to the mid 17th century. The rear garden, the larger of the two, is more recent and was built in 1899 by a wealthy merchant. Next to the garden there is a museum displaying a personal collection of pottery, seals, mirrors and other artifacts from ancient China and Korea, which is included with admission.
Located in central Nara, a visit to Isuien Garden is easily combined with seeing other attractions such as Todaiji Temple and Kofukuji Temple, which are both a ten minute walk away.

Kasuga Taisha Shrine, Nara - 春日大社 - Japan As It Truly Is
Kasuga Taisha is Nara's undersung jewel and has a history going back to 768 AD. It's famous for its more than 3000 lanterns.
The approach to Kasuga Grand Shrine is through the Kasugayama Primeval Forest, and both are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The walk through Nara Park past the many deer is very relaxing, and you can also see here several smaller shrines next to Kasuga - the area has been preserved as it was over 1200 years ago.
There are several annual festivals at Kasuga Taisha also - in February, March, and August.
The Todaiji Temple as well as the Isuien Garden and Yoshikien Garden get a lot more attention, but don't miss this huge shrine which you'll never forget.

Yoshikien Garden, Nara ???? 奈良市の吉城園 ???? Japan As It Truly Is
Yoshikien (吉城園) is a delightful traditional garden by Nara Park that few in the tourist stampede to Todaiji Temple venture to discover.
Within Yoshikien are 3 distinct gardens - a moss garden, a pond garden, and a flower garden for tea ceremonies.
The entrance fee is waived for foreign tourists.
Yoshiki-en offers a very serene atmosphere and offers a quiet place to relax and take a break after rushing to all the Nara sights. Yoshikien is often combined with another garden visit nearby, the Isuien Garden.

JAPAN VLOG | Osaka Pt. 1 (Nara, Isuien Gardens, Osaka Aquarium)
Brought to you by my trusty IPhone 8+ & shitty filming ability; I hope you can enjoy this video at least a bit. I edited this video in an app called Splice and the music is also from the app.

Instagram:
Please feel free to leave comments with feed back. I’m new to editing and vloging; naturally I have plenty of room for improvement and would be grateful for any and all pointers.
Here is some info about the trip:
We flew out of Cairns Australia. It’s a direct flight which only takes about 7Hrs. We flew with Jet Star and got ourselves an awesome deal which I purchased in February of 2019.
The weather was great in October - Mid November. Most of the days were between 18-23 degrees; cooling down to 6-10 degrees at night. We found ourselves wearing long pants and light sweaters or shirts for most of the trip. Only throwing a jacket on for evenings. It was really starting to come into Autumn as we were leaving. If you’re planning to be in the Kanto/Chobu/Kansai regions (and you’re hoping to see the orange leaves) then I’d suggest going more early November into late December. Mind you it becomes quite a bit colder towards the end of the year.
Our first Airbnb was located in Nipponbashi (Osaka) and was amazing! The location was super good. There is an exit at the start of the street which makes getting to and from super easy. Numba Station is also a 7-10 minute walk away which was handy coming in from the airport. Dotonbori, Osaka’s Electric district, Shopping streets and museums are all within walking distance or short train rides away. There are multiple convince stores between the train exit and the apartment area; and we always felt safe while staying here.
Our first few days were spent enjoying the Japan atmosphere and figuring out the rail system (which is super easy btw.) Much of this video is spent in Nara. We visited Isuien Gardens; located between Nara Park and Tōdai-ji (temple with the giant Buddha statue.) Nara was one of my favourite locations and a place I am looking forward to visiting again. If you have the opportunity to spent multiple days there then I’d highly recommend it.
If one day is all you can fit in then its not to worry. You can get many of the main attractions done easily as they’re all within walking distance of each other. On this trip we started our day early and began at Nara Park where you can feed the deer. Thereafter we took about a ten minute walk to Isuien Garden were we spent about 30-40 minutes walking around the garden. There is a tea house and a museum so if you wish to enjoy those aspects as well, you’d want to spent maybe an hour/an hour and a half here. The museum houses traditional Japanese Ceramics, old scriptures and some of the first Japanese Dictionaries as well as paintings and such.
You can walk another 10 minutes to Tōdai-ji temple which houses the 15 metre high Buddha statue. The temple itself was the highlight for me as it is so grand. A fact I found out afterwards is that it’s actually about 30% smaller than the original building, which is mind boggling considering how big it currently is.
After visiting the temple we had a late lunch and did some shopping near the station. There is plenty more to see and do in Nara. In this video we visit Korea Town, though I didn’t take many videos while we were there. Osaka has the largest Korea Town in Japan. From where we were located it was about 30 minutes by train and was a 15 minute walk from the closest stop (since we had to catch a bus to get closer and we didn’t want to.) The selection of Korean food is really amazing and is sort of all there is. Other than mountains of K-pop merch. It’s still worth visiting if you’re into Korean Culture. If you’re planning to visit I would definitely make a day out of it, since it’s a trip to get there and there is lots to see in the area other than just the main strip.
The rest of the footage is all from the Aquarium (Kaiyukan) and these sorts of things usually give me mixed feelings, as with zoos. But the Osaka Aquarium seriously is something else. While the Whale sharks might be a bit sad, the rest of the marine life had ample space, incredible replications and looked healthy/well sized. The experience is one I’d recommend to anyone. It’s something you won’t be able to see easily, as it’s one of the worlds largest aquariums and in my opinion nicest.
That’s it for my first vlog. I’ll see you in the next one! I can’t believe you read all of that lmao

TRAVEL JAPAN , CITY OF NARA , THINGS TO DO
The visit to Nara city, (and Sija Deer Park) in our travel to Japan may not have been at the best time to visit Japan and travel Japan, but even so, it showed with the help of Lonely Planet and CJ, our Japan guide, a very interesting country. Always with the help of a Japan map and Nara map, we visited a series of places that we show you in the video. Among them, we highlight the Nara Deer Park, where you can enjoy the deer (sika deer). On this Nara Japan trip, we visited: todaiji temple, Nara deer park, Kasuga Taisha and Miyajima.
