Beware in Nara

When we were in Nara a couple of weeks ago, we visited the famous Todai-Ji Temple.  People go to the Buddhist Temple to see the huge Buddha statue and the historic building (that has been rebuilt several times).

It is located in the middle of Nara Park, a lovely park filled with beautiful sights and tons of deer.  Vendors have booths all over selling crackers for people to feed the deer.  Over time, the deer have gotten more and more aggressive.

While it makes many people laugh to have deer come and nibble on their purses and take crackers from their hands, it is too much for others.  Our son decided to not feed the deer, especially after seeing this sign.

While it is neat to see all the deer wandering around the park, it is a bit overwhelming as well.
