A manga artist returns to his hometown for the first time in over a decade and finds himself in a completely different place: the peaceful Nara Basin! This book explores the depths of Nara, beyond what you'd expect on a school trip, including a number of outlandish traditional events, the hidden side of the deer, the emergence of a gigantic mall, the activities of the J.League Nara Football Club and local idols, and surprising gourmet food.
Menma-sensei's unique and entertaining perspective introduces famous events such as the Great Buddha's "Omi-buki" (wiping ceremony), the burning of Mt. Wakakusa, the unusual "Sand-throwing Festival," and the Shosoin Exhibition, as well as tourist spots such as Sarusawa Pond and Kasuga Taisha Shrine. This is the perfect book to accompany your trip to Nara.
