Arashiyama

Today I would like to introduce Arashiyama, near my house. It is located west side of Kyoto city.
It is very relaxing place as there is a mountain where you could walk up, river, some beautiful temples ans shrines and banboo forest.
It it also nice to rent a bicycle and go around.

This is the bamboo forest. It is nice to walk this street early in the morning or evening as less people and very quiet.




You can take the Torokko train which run through the beautiful valley.
There is a beautiful view of river and bridge.



There are many cafes and restaurants where you can take a rest.

I found a nice comfortable cafe, Kaede  楓 which is located in the quiet area after bamboo street. This cafe has a small pretty garden and is surrounded trees. You could be relaxed and have hand made sweets.

There are many places to see in Kyoto, temples, shrines and gardens. In this area, you could be close to nature, river, mountain and forest at Arashiyama.
