The Man’yoshu — Japan’s oldest anthology of poetry — was compiled largely in Nara during the Nara period, drawing on landscapes that included the mountains and plains now occupied by the modern city. Nara Manyou Country Club takes its name from that literary heritage, a course set in surroundings that the Nara period poets would have recognized — if not the golf itself.

The Course

The course is set in the rolling forested terrain of the Nara hills, with a layout that makes good use of the natural landscape. Tree-lined fairways, consistent greens, and a design that rewards positioning over power — a well-balanced course that suits a range of handicaps while still offering genuine challenge for better players.
