“Bamboo Forest”

experience

“Our next stop is the Yasaka Pagoda. But you come here for more than just to see the beautiful pagoda. This is in the Higashiyama neighborhood and it's one of the most well-preserved historic districts here in Kyoto.”

day trip

“Let's see some bamboo. So, this is the famous bamboo forest, and it was planted as early as 794. And one fascinating thing that I learned when I was researching this is that this entire bamboo grove, all bamboo groves, are one single living organism.”

experience

“Osaka's largest tourist attraction. This is the Osaka Castle. Even though it's raining, the fall trees with the castle as the backdrop is absolutely beautiful.”

shopping

“So, we've enlisted the help of a local who's going to take us around the Kuromon Market and help us find all the most delicious and most interesting foods. This is the place to be right now. Actually crazy. You cannot see where it ends.”

day trip

“In Nara, we'll show you the reality of a city that attracts almost 10 million tourists a year to feed wild deer. And in Kyoto, we'll take you around to some of the most iconic sites and end the trip with a bang. We've never been to any of these places.”
