What creators say
Walk through the towering bamboo stalks for a serene and immersive natural experience, but be prepared for crowds during peak hours.
In their own words: “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.”
Arrive early to experience the serene bamboo forest without the crowds.
In their own words: “The Arashiyama bamboo grove is the most popular one and best enjoyed by arriving early to beat the dense crowds that gather by mid-morning.”
Explore the iconic bamboo forest and enjoy the scenic beauty of this popular Kyoto district.
In their own words: “Maybe less people. Yes.”
