The climb south of Togetsukyo; the top looks over Kyoto. Wild macaques — do not hold food in your hands. Pick this or the bamboo if your legs are done.
Best time
Morning or dusk. Cherry and maple seasons are their own crowds.
How to go
JR Sagano to Saga-Arashiyama, or Hankyu Arashiyama. Nearest “嵐山”. The day stays west — not Kinkaku-ji.
Tips
- · The climb south of Togetsukyo; the top looks over Kyoto. Wild macaques — do not hold food in your hands. Pick this or the bamboo if your legs are done.
- · One axis a day. Do not stack Higashiyama, Arashiyama, Fushimi, Kinkaku and Ginkaku.
