Tips from the community
This forest is much more than it seems. The lanes of Japan’s bamboo forest hide wonderful surprises at every turn: artists, poets, and painters who often speak English (and are well worth talking to). They don’t push you to buy anything, but their art is worth browsing. After all, what better place to get inspiration? This is the only place in Kyoto where swimming in a sea of tourists feels comfortable. The atmosphere is such a dreamy mix of serene and electric.

Daydreams of Japan often include sights like Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, Kyoto’s most-visited site and one of the best things to do in Japan. Here, verdant groves of bamboo stretch high into the sky in all directions, making it feel like you’re in another world instead of 30 minutes away from a major city. It’s calm as can be and mind-bogglingly beautiful.

Just outside of Kyoto, Arashiyama is a massive bamboo forest that is easily one of the most breathtaking destinations not even in Japan but on the planet. Imagine thousands and thousands of emerald green bamboo trunks towering into the Kyoto skyline, fresh air, and incredible photo-ops.
