Day 4 - Nara afternoon

Lunch provided a new surprise - Okonomi-Yakima, which is probably best described as a cross between a pizza and a Chinese style pancake. Just the thing for a chilly day and big appetites!







They are cooked on a hot grill and stay that way as you eat them because the table also has a hotplate!!

From lunch it was a short walk to check out the Kofuku-ji temple which includes an impressive five-storey pagoda dating from 1426.







After this, some window shopping in the Naramachi district, then back to the station for the return trip to Kyoto.

After that a little window shopping then time for dinner.
