2. This bridge is called Togetsukyo literally means the moon crossing bridge. In old days the emperor was playing on a boat in this river. He looked up the bridge and felt that the moon seemed to be crossing the bridge as his boat was moving forward. After that this bridge has been called the moon crossing bridge, Togetsukyo.

3. The "Bamboo Grove" in Arashiyama is one place to make sure you visit when travelling in Kyoto. The grove starts in Arashiyama, goes through the north side of the heritage-listed temple Tenryū-ji and continues on to Nonomiya Shrine. The bamboo grove is a recommended Kyoto tourist site - just walking along the path is a great experience.

About Kyoto

Kyoto, über tausend Jahre Japans Kaiserstadt, ist eine Stadt der Tempel, Gärten, Holzhäuser und verfeinerten Traditionen.

Die Stadt beherbergt viele der kostbarsten Stätten Japans. Tausende zinnoberrote Torii-Tore des Fushimi Inari Taisha steigen einen bewaldeten Berg hinauf, der Goldene Pavillon des Kinkaku-ji schimmert über seinem Teich, und die hölzerne Bühne des Kiyomizu-dera ragt aus dem Hang über der Stadt. Der Felsengarten des Ryoan-ji und das moosbewachsene Gelände des Ginkaku-ji laden zur stillen Betrachtung ein.

Top-ranked sights in Kyoto: Fushimi Inari Shrine (Fushimi Inari Taisha), Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
