Kintetsu-Nara Station
About
Kintetsu-Nara Station is the ultimate gateway to Nara's historic treasures, positioned significantly closer to Nara Park, Todai-ji, and the bowing deer than its JR counterpart. This bustling underground hub features an excellent tourist information center, local souvenir shops, and diverse dining options. It is the most convenient arrival point for travelers taking the rapid express from Kyoto or Osaka.
Insider Tip
Head to the station's ground level to explore Higashimuki Shopping Street, a covered arcade packed with great local street food.
