Walking around Nara city and curry rice

Once we came out from Nara park, we choosen to walk back from this park to train station, the distance was not that far actually.. So we can have sight seeing of this small Nara city..Below pictures were taken along our walk..

This is a famous Japanese garden in Nara, but we decided not to enter and continue our walk..

When Nami Just One Cookbook posted her Mitarashi Dango みたらし団子 , i was wonder how it taste. Finally i got a chance to try out. An interesting flavour of the sauce, sweet and salty..

Imagawayaki (今川焼き?)
Every time we passed by this shop while we were at the train station (I think it was Umeda station) , sure we buy their Imagawayaki, (pan cake that filled with sweet azuki bean paste), very nice  and yummy!
