| Additional Information |
Image was scanned from color slide. Note: Nara Park (Nara Koen) is a large park in central Nara. Established in 1880, it is the location of many of Nara's main attractions including: Todaiji (Great Eastern Temple), Kasuga Taisha (Kasuga Grand Shrine), Kofukuji Temple and the Nara National Museum. The park is home to hundreds of freely-roaming deer. These deer have become a symbol of the city and have been designated a natural treasure.--Japan Guide website. Note: Appears to be same as image with File Name: nara_deer_030 and caption information: "Caution sign (written in English), Nara Park, Nara, Japan." Note: Original caption information provided for this image as: "Kenroka-en Park water fall chain Muutsura Mansion Kanasawa, Japan." This caption appears to correspond to image with File Name: sl_aspectsofthejapanesegarden089 (photo of a rain chain). Note: Image with File Name: sl_aspectsofthejapanesegarden089 (an image of rain chain) had original caption provided as: "Deer Park Sign Nara Japan." That caption appears to correspond to this image instead.--AC |
