Naramachi is a beautifully preserved merchant district where wooden townhouses, stone-paved alleys, and hidden shrines whisper stories of everyday life in Japan’s former capital. Take an intimate look at Nara’s history, through its local crafts businesses.
Once home to monks, merchants, and artisans, these centuries-old traditions quietly persist through tucked-away tea shops and shopfronts that haven’t changed in generations. This walking tour brings you into the heart of Nara’s quieter folklore and modern way of living.
