Arashiyama Bamboo Forest

The bamboo forest in the wild, there are signs, just follow. I haven't come for a long time. I feel that the bamboo forest is still high. This time there are many tourists. I also saw the Japanese come to the bamboo forest to take wedding photos.

This place is incredible. The beautiful colours of the forest lighting up when the sun rises is something that is worth seeing. Unfortunately this is an Instagram influencer and tourist hotspot so if you want a classic photo of you standing in the middle of the forest without anyone standing there you need to get there EARLY! Otherwise good luck There is also an epic hike to the mountain behind the forest that no one really goes to giving you an epic view of the town below.

popular place when you visited Tokyo. mostly of the time crowded with people. well connected with the train station. nice walk along the way with beautiful scenery.

Remember 2019.11 Kansai late autumn trip~ The wild bamboo forest of Lushan, to be honest, is a bit disappointing. I imagined a large magnificent and lush bamboo forest, wide and thousands of miles, in it, I can feel my own smallness in an instant. Close your eyes and stare, a breeze blows, and your ears are shrieking. The reality is... The bamboo forest is surrounded in several areas, not very dense, some sparse, even a bit messy, I feel that the bamboo forest of Gaotai Temple has a sense of beauty. Anyway, I also passed by on the way to the attractions, and I didn't delay time. Just enjoy it.

Arashiyama is the second most important sightseeing district in Kyoto. It is filled with temples and shrines, but the main attraction is the famous bamboo forest. Best time to visit is in Autumn as you can see a lot of autumn tress.

a 9 mins walk from the station . is better to visit during day time , is turn very dark around 4 pm . the forest is very cool with many bamboo
