First stop today was Arashiyama bamboo forest. So peaceful to hear the wind blowing through the bamboo. There was a large serene Shinto temple there as well.

After this was our favorite stop of the day: Arashiyama Monkey Park! Here monkeys were roaming freely and you could feed them peanuts and apples.

After lunch we went to the kimono forest where old kimonos were upcycled as art.
