Arashiyama has been a popular destination since the Heian period (794–1185), when nobles came here to enjoy the beautiful seasonal scenery. The area is especially famous for cherry blossoms in spring and colorful leaves in autumn. The Bamboo Grove is one of Arashiyama’s most iconic spots. Walking through the tall, swaying bamboo creates a peaceful and almost otherworldly experience. In the past, bamboo was also used for tools and building materials in daily life.

Monkey Park Iwatayama is located on a small mountain in Arashiyama, Kyoto. After a short hike (about 20 minutes), you’ll reach the top, where over 100 wild Japanese macaques live freely. Unlike a zoo, the monkeys are not in cages—you enter their space. You can enjoy stunning panoramic views of Kyoto city from the top, and even feed the monkeys with special snacks. It’s a fun and unique experience, especially for families and nature lovers!
