Why Deer Are Sacred in Japan | Walking Through Kasuga Taisha, Nara | History & Story

In this video, we take a slow and quiet walk through Kasuga Taisha, one of the most important Shinto shrines in Japan, located in the ancient capital of Nara. Founded in the year 768, Kasuga Taisha was built to protect the early Japanese capital and is deeply connected to the powerful Fujiwara clan. According to legend, a deity arrived here riding a white deer — a story that transformed deer in Nara into sacred messengers of the gods. As we walk through moss-covered stone lanterns, vermilion shrine buildings, and the untouched Kasugayama Primeval Forest, this video explores not only the history of Kasuga Taisha, but also the atmosphere — the silence, the light, and the feeling of time slowing down. This is not a fast travel guide. It’s a calm journey into Japanese spirituality, nature, and memory. 📍 Nara, Japan 💬 Subtitles recommended #KasugaTaisha #japan #travel #Nara #deer #ShintoShrine #slowtravel
