Manufacturing in Nara – The city of cherry blossoms

The Nara prefecture is home to almost 1,350,000 people and an important commercial center. Nara in its present form was only founded in 1868. But there is also another Nara, once the capital city of Japan. A city in the historic Yamato province with a wealth of history and significant Buddhist temples, with Shinto shrines and important traces of Japanese culture from many centuries – so important that UNESCO has included Nara in the list of World Cultural Heritage sites.
