If so, you can try to bow down in front of the deer and they will do the same! After, of course, they are waiting for a reward in form of cookies, which you can buy when entering Nara Park<\/strong><\/em>. It is really a fun thing to do and all visitors of the park love it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #2 T\u014ddai-ji Temple<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n T\u014ddai-ji Temple<\/strong><\/em> is situated in Nara Park<\/strong><\/em>. The main hall of T\u014ddai-ji Temple<\/strong><\/em>, known as the Daibutsuden, is the largest wooden building in the world. Its construction required an immense amount of resources and craftsmanship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Inside the Daibutsuden, you can marvel at the Great Buddha statue,<\/strong><\/em> the<\/em> largest bronze Buddha statue in the world<\/em>. The statue is a sight to behold, standing at over 15 meters tall.
