Nara Higashimuki Shopping Street

Stretching directly from Kintetsu-Nara Station, this bustling covered arcade is the perfect gateway to the city's historic sites. It is packed with traditional craft shops, local souvenir boutiques, and diverse eateries serving regional specialties like persimmon leaf sushi (kakisoba). It is an ideal, weather-proof spot to grab lunch, buy quality Nara deer themed gifts, or sample fresh mochi before heading to Nara Park.
