Mountains and Waters of Kyoto - "Katsura River" and "Togetsukyo Bridge"

One of the must-see attractions in Arashiyama is the Togetsukyo Bridge, which is decorated with wood to match the environment perfectly. Its name was given because it is believed to be like the moon walking on the bridge. The theme song of "Detective Conan: Crimson Love Song" "Togetsukyo Bridge ~Kimi Soufu~" is titled "Togetsukyo Bridge", which shows how famous this bridge is. The Togetsukyo Bridge, which spans the Katsura River, connects the Sagano area on the north side of the bridge with Arashiyama on the south side. However, I believe that the reason why "Togetsukyo Bridge" is famous is because of the beauty of "Katsura River". The long Katsura River is 114 kilometers long and flows through the west side of Kyoto City. It merges with the Kamogawa River and the Ujigawa River before merging into the Yodogawa River. It is one of the largest rivers in Kyoto. The Katsura River was first opened up as a place where the "rafting" for transporting wood in the Heian period ran, and it is a busy river. Today it is one of the best places for tourists to enjoy cherry blossoms and red leaves. In addition to overlooking the scenery of the Katsura River and Arashiyama from the Togetsukyo Bridge, it is also recommended to take a slow walk along both sides of the Katsura River and slowly appreciate the river and the mountains. This will definitely allow you to feel the elegance of Kyoto. There is also a "% Arabica Coffee" not far from the "Togetsukyo Bridge" in the "Katsura River". There was already a long queue when I arrived in the morning. There is also a branch in Hong Kong, but drinking a cup of coffee in such a beautiful environment is another enjoyment. #日本景点 #国外 #日本 #京都 #岚山 #寶津川 #塵川 #japan #kyoto #arashiyama
