Arashiyama Aidan Fournier

Arashiyama is a large bamboo forest in Japan.

Togetsoku is a bridge nearby that got its name from a 12 century emperor.

The bamboo forest is said to be indescribable, even through pictures you would have to go there to really know what it feels like. When the bamboo gets that high it almost completely blocks out the sun to the walkway. It is a popular tourist attraction as there are hotels and other points of interest nearby. You can get to Arashiyama by train, or by car. After the train there is a short walk to the area, driving a car will permit the same. There are 5 temples in Arashiyama, with a large river flowing next to some of them.
