Our Favourites
Located in the western outskirts of Kyoto, Arashiyama is famed for its beautiful scenery and well-preserved ancient royal court. Enter the former villa of late actor Okochi Denjiro, the Okochi Sanso Villa – take a stroll through the traditional Japanese garden rumored to be built by Denjiro as a picture of everlasting beauty (not the deteriorating beauty captured on film). Explore one of Kyoto's great Zen temples, the Tenryuji Temple – built in 1339 by the shogun Ashikaga Takauji in honor of the late Emperor Godaigo, with a number of vantage points offering the best views of Arashiyama. Complete your journey at iconic Togetsukyo Bridge, the 'Moon Crossing Bridge', known for beautiful reflections in the Oi River.
Insider Tips:
- Arashiyama is particularly picturesque during the cherry blossom season (early April) and mid-autumn (second half of November) season. In December, lanterns line the streets and bamboo groves during the Hanatoro illluminatio
