Itinerary
Arashiyama Monkey Park Iwatayama is a unique attraction located in the scenic Arashiyama area of Kyoto. Perched atop Mount Iwatayama, the park is home to over 100 wild Japanese macaques (snow monkeys) that roam freely, offering visitors a chance to observe them in their natural habitat.
Tenryu Temple, is a historic Zen Buddhist temple located in Arashiyama, a scenic district on the western outskirts of Kyoto, Japan. It's one of the most important temples in Kyoto and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, part of the "Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto."
The Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, also called the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, is a natural bamboo forest located in the Arashiyama district of Kyoto, Japan, near the Tenryū-ji Temple. Why it’s famous: It's one of the most iconic and photogenic places in Japan, with tall, swaying stalks of bamboo creating a surreal, almost otherworldly atmosphere. Walking through the forest is a calm and peaceful experience, especially early in the morning or during off-peak times. The sound of the wind rustling through the bamboo is so unique it’s been listed as one of the "100 Soundscapes of Japan" by the Japanese Ministry of the Environment.

About Kyoto
Kyoto, Japan's imperial capital for over a thousand years, is a city of temples, gardens, wooden townhouses and refined traditions.
The city holds many of Japan's most treasured sites. Fushimi Inari Taisha's thousands of vermilion torii gates climb a wooded mountain, Kinkaku-ji's Golden Pavilion shimmers over its pond, and Kiyomizu-dera's wooden stage juts from the hillside above the city. The rock garden of Ryoan-ji and the mossy grounds of Ginkaku-ji invite quiet contemplation.
Top-ranked sights in Kyoto: Fushimi Inari Shrine (Fushimi Inari Taisha), Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
