Muy bonito. Perfecto para hacer fotos con reflejos.
Un lugar tranquilo y pintoresco en el centro de Nara. Hermosos reflejos de la pagoda de cinco pisos en el agua, especialmente al atardecer. Un lugar ideal para un paseo tranquilo y para ver ciervos en las cercanías. Gratuito y de fácil acceso, perfecto para un breve descanso entre visitas turísticas.
Visitado el sábado 22 de noviembre de 2025 El estanque Sarusawa siempre ha sido un lugar hermoso para pasear, reflejando la atmósfera típica de Nara con su hermoso "espejo de agua" que refleja la pagoda de cinco pisos del templo Kofuku-ji. Sin embargo, debido a las obras actuales, está prohibido fotografiar la pagoda. Personalmente, recomiendo tomar fotos del espejo de agua del Starbucks. Simplemente pasear alrededor del estanque es relajante, lo que lo convierte en el lugar perfecto para un descanso entre visitas turísticas. La vista desde los 52 escalones de piedra también es pintoresca y perfecta para fotografiar. Este es un lugar imprescindible para cualquier visitante de Nara.
