Sagano Bamboo Forest – Kyoto, Japan

The Sagano Bamboo Forest is around 30 minutes from Kyoto by train. While you are here, you feel the feeling of leaving the vestiges of old Japan to here and there, trying to protect it. It can be visited on foot from the city of Arashiyama. If visitors can find a time to visit the bamboo forest when it is relatively empty the combination of visual beauty and auditory calm may be one of a kind. There is no word however on how the place smells. Subsribe on Happy Traveler -
