Nara, Japan - Beauty of Lanterns at Kasuga Taisha Shrine, UNESCO World Heritage Site
Kasuga Taisha Shrine locates in the central Nara Prefecture. The shrine was built in 768. It is one of the prestigious shrines in Japan, in terms of its history and beauty of architecture. The place is filled with uncontaminated air due to surrounded mature trees. Visitors can enjoy a sense of serenity by walk.
Only twice a year, 3,000 stone and iron lanterns have been illuminated by candle lights more than 800 years. I waited for a year to celebrate this moment. Unfortunately and very unfortunately a tripod is not allowed to use and so that I increased ISO. Nara is Japan's ancient capital before Kyoto. Its history, architecture and landscapes are deep and profound. I have discovered Nara!!!
