Experience the tranquil beauty of Arashiyama as you venture beyond the iconic Bamboo Forest. Join this trekking adventure that goes beyond ordinary sightseeing, offering you the rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the practices of Zen Buddhism.
Arashiyama, once the tranquil retreat of Kyoto’s imperial court, is rich in history and beauty. Explore Arashiyama’s Main Street and the historic Togetsukyo Bridge before stepping into the ancient world of Zen as you learn the art of meditation and the sacred chants of Buddhist sutras under the guidance of a qualified monk.
Engage in meaningful conversations and gain insights into the teachings of Buddhism, ascend to the mountaintop temple of Daihikaku Senkoji, and marvel at panoramic views of Kyoto, Arashiyama, and the Hozu River valley.
Delight in a traditional tea ceremony amidst the serene surroundings, continue up the mountain, through an ancient bamboo grove, and up to Arashiyama-Kameyama Park. Then you’ll get to visit the famous Bamboo Forest and the serene Nonomiya Shrine as your friendly TripGuru shares anecdotes and tidbits about Kyoto’s spiritual heritage and natural wonders.
The last stop of the day is the Randen Keifuku Arashiyama station where you can unwind with traditional Japanese snacks, admire exquisite kimono patterns at the Kimono Forest, and soak your tired feet in a soothing foot bath while relishing in the serene ambiance.
