Tenryu-ji Temple(1) Sogenchi Teien (Sogen Pond Garden) Soseki Muso created this Japanese garden, which is a "pond garden" with a pond at its center. Visitors can enjoy the seasonal scenery (cherry blossoms, autumn leaves, fresh greenery, and snow). As a World Heritage Site, this spot is popular among overseas visitors. (2) Tour of the Hatto Hall The Hatto Dharma Hall is famous for its "Unryu" (dragon on cloud) ceiling paintings. The "dragon staring in all directions," in which the dragon's eyes appear to be staring at you from every angle, is a highlight. The museum is open to the public during special exhibition periods.

Bamboo Forest Street(1) Bamboo Grove Walk Bamboos more than 10 meters high line both sides of the path, creating a fantastic atmosphere for walking. The sound of bamboo leaves swaying in the wind and the sight of sunlight filtering through the trees stimulate the senses and provide a sense of tranquility and peace. 2) Photography The tunnel-like scenery of the bamboo grove is extremely photogenic and a popular photo spot for tourists. Taking pictures while strolling through the area in a kimono or Japanese-style clothing will make your visit even more special and memorable. 5) Savor the atmosphere of each season The fresh greenery in spring, the cool green bamboo in summer, the contrast of autumn leaves and bamboo groves in fall, and the snow-covered landscape in winter all add to the charm of the four seasons. Especially during the "Kyoto Arashiyama Hanatouro," you can enjoy the bamboo grove illuminated at night.

(1) Visiting the bridge itself The bridge has a history dating back to the Heian period (794-1185), and although its current form was replaced in the Showa period (1926-1989), it retains its traditional appearance. It is also instructive to learn the origin of the bridge's name, "Togetsu-bashi," which means "the moon appears to cross the bridge. 2) Experience walking across the bridge Walking across the 155-meter-long bridge over the Katsura River, visitors can feel the murmur of the river and the view of the mountains with their whole body. The view changes depending on the direction you cross the bridge, giving you a different impression on the way to and from the bridge.

Monkey Park Iwatayama(1) Observing Japanese monkeys in the wild Approximately 120 monkeys live in the wild, and visitors can observe their lives up close. The sight of monkeys moving freely and spending time in groups gives visitors a realistic feeling that cannot be experienced in a zoo. ２) Viewing the panoramic view of Kyoto city From the observatory, visitors can enjoy a spectacular panoramic view of Kyoto City. It is especially beautiful at sunset and during the season of autumn leaves, when the monkeys and the scenery can be enjoyed together.
