Experience of visiting the bamboo forest in Lanshan in 2007
Take a small train to and from the mountains and forests. In autumn, the wind blowing in Japan is slightly cold, but the lush forests of the mountains are eye-catching!After arriving at Kameoka Station, the sun has fallen all over, unveiling the beautiful itinerary of walking Arashiyama. This trip is the first time to come to Kyoto, Japan with a group. The explanations are very detailed. The members of the team followed and listened to the explanation very seriously, but Wendy and I were curious about everything when we came here for the first time. In addition, we finally bought a single-lens camera and became obsessed with taking pictures. It was obvious. Became a team member who took photos and took his time.
But the fresh air filled the Arashiyama bamboo forest, with towering bamboo clusters standing on both sides, walking, still surprised that the trail is so clean, no wonder Japan has always been the first choice for family travel.
▲ Arashiyama is a well-known scenic spot for spring cherry and autumn maple, and there are many temples to enjoy the scenery.
▲ Watch the red leaves along the way while riding the small train.
▲ In autumn, the golden thread chrysanthemum is more beautiful.
▲ The leader and tour guide at the time was very happy to participate in his Keihan maple viewing tour.
▲ Have you seen this red maple?As a result, everyone took a lot of shots~ it took about half an hour! ^^b
▲ I estimate that this year's maple season will be around mid-November. Are you ready?
▲ This year's Lantern Road is still 12/8~12/17. (See for detailsOfficial website)
Shun along Lanshan Street and experience
Passing by the Tianlong Temple, the red maple and the green shade in the temple became obvious contrasts. The quiet and solemn atmosphere inside the temple made us want to know more. But after all, we belonged to the "departed" team members and hurriedly took a few pictures at the door. , And rushed forward.When you come to the urban area of Arashiyama, there are many stalls selling handicrafts and the most famous tofu dishes.These exquisite handicrafts along the road are all "Japanese" and can be bought as souvenirs.
In addition to Xilai people on the road, there are also groups of rickshaw trains with tourists on them. If I remember correctly, a ride on the rickshaw will cost 1,000 yen/person. For traffic safety, there are also several uncles who are on the spot. Avoid crowding pedestrians and rickshaws together.Arashiyama is really a very beautiful place. At the time of writing this article, the red maple, trails, and air seemed to be around again, which is nostalgic!
▲ The trail behind...too clean!
▲ These handicrafts have a sense of rustic design.
▲ This store is still there! In 2012, the cherry blossom viewing party came to the old place, Wendy still went to buy and taste it.
▲ One is a very serious old man, and the other is a very expensive wife. (I imagine they should be very affectionate~)
▲ The autumn scenery on the road, I think the residents who live here are really happy, it is so comfortable!
