Great place to visit. The deer were friendly but could be very persistent in asking for snacks. Many shops selling Japanese delicacies. Full review by rinos751

A beautiful park with thousands of sika deer roaming around. The deers are extremely friendly and love tourists (or more accurately the rice crackers that tourist purchase to feed the deer). It's a g… Full review by Zigett

As an animal lover I was excited to head to Nara Park and see the 'adorable' deer. Granted the deer were everywhere, but the place was packed with everyone trying to shove crackers in the deer's fac… Full review by Ryn K
When’s the latest time to purchase the food and feed the deer in Nara park?

There are push cart sellers at Nara Park selling biscuits for the deers. Each pack is about 8 pieces. Nara Park (huge!) itself does not require a ticket to visit, open to all. So, the sellers will be there as long as there are visitors to the park. Good weather etc. Usually the sellers are scattered all over the park, mostly where the concentration of deers are - at flat grounds. If you don’t see any sellers, go near the temple building, chances you’ll find these biscuit sellers.

I was never at the Park early enough to not have the shops open. Regardless of when you go the Park and its attractions are well beyond just the deer. The Buddha at the end of the park is amazing. The museum along the walk is well worth it. The deer are fun but they can be aggressive. One time we were there it was fall and there were vendors selling baked sweet potatoes. We were finished with the potato and I was holding on to the wrapping paper until we could find an appropriate place to dispose of it. We stopped to take a picture and a deer snuck up behind us and stole the paper. I actually have a picture if the crime. Plan plenty of time. If you go during a festival there will also be a lot of great street food. It is well worth it.

Hi, Adam here from Adam's Apple: The World On our trip to Nara Park a few years back, we pet several deer throughout the day, and one even bit me in the side when a group of deer surrounded me in search for deer crackers. Fortunately, I only had small bruising and no rashes, etc. You can read more about my experience on my website.
