so i was searching yoshitomo nara just to reminisce his greatness and stumbled upon the discovery of nara the city of japan...wow, this IS dream city...i need to go here oneday...
"Tame deer roam through the town, and especially in Nara Park. These deer might be considered "tame" if the visitor does not have any "shika sembei - Deer Biscuits" when they see them.
According to the legendary history of Kasuga Shrine, a mythological god Takemikazuchi arrived in Nara on a white deer to guard the newly built capital of Heijō-kyō. Since then the deer were regarded as heavenly animal to protect the city and the country.[5] Snack vendors sell small biscuits to visitors so they can enjoy feeding the deer. Some of the deer have learned to bow in response to tourists' bows. They nudge, jostle, and even bite for food."
sooooo magical...deer are already magical creatures to me...and now that i know theres a magical city of deer...i must go there...
