Nara Prefecture is attracting many visitors this year, as a range of events celebrate the 1,300th anniversary of the founding of Heijo-kyo as Japan's ancient capital.
While the series of celebrations will end soon, the Hotel Nikko Nara is offering a half-price accommodation plan for repeat visitors to Nara.
Limited to those who have visited Nara in 2010, the lowest price for one night after a 50 percent discount is applied is ¥4,875 per person, per night. To get the discount, guests need to present upon check-in something to prove that they have visited Nara in 2010. Such proof can be, for example, entrance ticket stubs for exhibitions, concerts, events or tourist spots in Nara, or photos taken at 1,300th anniversary event venues, such as the Heijo Palace site.
