It takes about an hour, but it is easy to get there without changing trains.
JR Nara Station to Rohto Field
Konoike Sports Park, where the Arena is located, is about 2.5 kilometers away from Nara Station, so it may be a little difficult to walk there.
From JR Nara Station, the Nara Bus connects the station to the stadium, so it is convenient to take the bus.
