Bamboo Forest, Japan















Sagano Bamboo Forest is located in Arashiyama, a district on the west outskirts of Kyoto,  Japan.
Sagano Bamboo Forest is one of the most amazing natural sites in Japan.

If you’ve been planning a trip to Kyoto, you’ve probably seen pictures of the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove – along with the torii tunnels of Fushimi-Inari-Taisha Shrine and Kinkaku-ji Temple, it’s one of the most photographed sights in the city. But no picture can capture the feeling of standing in the midst of this sprawling bamboo grove – the whole thing has a palpable sense of otherness that is quite unlike that of any normal forest we know of.
