Kasuga Taisha

⛩️🌸 Kasuga Taisha – Nara's sacred shrine, a enchanting beauty nestled amidst a sacred forest 🍃🦌

When it comes to sacred places steeped in charm and rich history in Japan 🇯🇵, one of the must-sees is Kasuga Taisha Shrine in Nara 🏯. It is one of Japan's most renowned Shinto shrines, renowned for its architecture, history, and mystical beauty surrounded by nature. 🌿✨

Kasuga Taisha Shrine was built in 768 to honor the guardian deity of Nara and the Fujiwara Dynasty. This shrine is home to the oldest aristocratic family in Japan. 🙏 The striking feature is the vibrant vermilion-painted pillars and buildings, contrasting with the deep green roofs of moss and surrounding trees, creating a sense of elegance and tranquility at the same time. 🍁

What makes this shrine unique are the over 3,000 stone and bronze lanterns 🏮 that line the walkways and inside the shrine.
