Although it is not the red leaf season, the green mountain scenery along the way is still very refreshing. There are also staff members singing in the carriage, and a row of civet cats at Hozukyo Station adds a bit of childishness.

Take the bus and get off, walk over, go uphill, the temple is not small, the outside is free, the inside is charged, the fare is not expensive, you can hit the squat, you need to line up, go to the top of the mountain to overlook the panoramic view of Kyoto City, walk down the road, and there are some scenery. Then go to Erchome and Mitsubishi.

一直在路上的猫

One of Kyoto&#39;s oldest shrines, the main god of harvest, business boom, family security, the shrine behind thousands of scarlet bird dwellings stretching to the top of the mountain, is a representative landscape of Kyoto. When I came, at about 1 noon, there were a lot of tourists. There were many shops at the door that could change clothes in kimonos. There were a lot of kimonos for younger brothers and sisters. There were not many cherry blossoms in mid-April. Thousand Birds ⛩️ In fact, it is better to take pictures with fewer people walking inside. If you just simply stroll down quickly, there is a mountain to climb up behind, and the mountain overlooks the panoramic view of Kyoto.

Arashiyama

Mountain climbing

Located in the northwest of Kyoto City, on the eastern edge of the Tanba Plateau, it is known as the &quot;No. 1 Scenic Spot in Kyoto&quot;.
There are: Sagano Bamboo Forest, Togetsukyo Bridge, Arashiyama Park (consisting of Kameyama, Nakanoshima, and Rinchuan Temple, with red pines, cherry trees, maple trees, etc., as well as facilities such as squares, rest areas, and observatories.), Tenryuji Temple, Nonomiya Shrine and other shrines. There is also Iwatayama Monkey Park.

It was a resort for aristocrats in the Heian period, became a center for temples and shrines in the Edo period, and gradually became a tourist destination after the Meiji Restoration.

◦ You can take the Sagano sightseeing train: it runs along the Hozugawa Valley, a total of 7.3 kilometers, about 25 minutes one way, and you can enjoy the beauty of the four seasons.

◦ Hozugawa rafting cruise: you can experience it in Kameoka, crossing the Aoyama Gorge to reach the Togetsukyo Bridge, the ticket price is 4,100 yen for adults.

I actually felt that it was okay after a tour, especially compared with the famous rivers and mountains in my country, the scenery is more delicate, and there is nothing special about it.

Best Things to Do

学校🏫

Gion: Geisha phantom and capital meat grinder, Kyoto&#39;s most dangerous Ukiyo-e Is it worth going? If you want to dissect the dark fairy tale of Japanese aesthetics, it&#39;s worth it! But under the stone slabs of each flower-viewing path are tourists&#39; IQ taxes - this is the Disneyland of geisha culture, and you are a human ATM. 
Hard-core truth: blood and gold on the shamisen strings 
Chemical war on the back of the neck of the maiko: under the white powder is not the legendary &quot;swan neck&quot;, but the scar of collodion burns - traditional geishas need to use glue to straighten the neck lines. The young girl kneels in front of the mirror at 3 a.m. and uses a bone brush knife to smooth the skin texture, just for a 0.5-second glimpse in your lens at dusk. 
The indulgence system of Ichiriki Tea House: The private banquet behind the door curtain costs ￥300,000 per night, and what they drink is not wine but class sacrifice. But when you open the tatami secret compartment, the contract signed by the prostitutes in the Meiji period sleeps with this morning&#39;s credit card bill - a century of exploitation has never evolved, only the payment method has changed. 
The physical scam of Yasaka Tower: Internet celebrity photographers will not say: The best camera position is on top of the power distribution box in the back alley of Tatsumi Daimyojin. What&#39;s even darker is that the tower lighting is sponsored by Sharp, and the LED color temperature is adjusted according to the new mobile phone products of the season - faith has long been adjusted by capital. 
The cyber torture device of Shirakawa Tsutsumi: pressure sensors are installed on the stone steps, and hidden spray devices (officially called &quot;moisturizing system&quot;) are triggered when the crowd is overloaded. The &quot;poetic scene&quot; of your kimono being wetted by water mist is actually a sewer strategy of big data to disperse the flow of people. 

Anti-harvest survival guide (more important than booking Kaiseki) 
Morning attack on ghost theater: 
5:00 squatting at the back door of Gion Kobu dance practice hall**, watching the geisha with bruises on her eyes after removing her makeup ride a shared bicycle home 
6:30 rush into the **Kenninji** abbot garden, the sand sound of monks sweeping fallen leaves is the real &quot;Kyoto sound&quot; 
Unlocking the midnight secret path: 
- 22:00 climb into the **Shimbashi Shirakawa** restricted area in the dark (Google Map 33.995&deg;N, 135.768&deg;E), the century-old chimney is reflected in the water like a giant harp 
- Every Friday on garbage day, throw away the sake lees in the back alley of Inoue Brewery, and dig out the yeast that brewed the geisha&#39;s lip balm with bare hands 
Fatal peak staggering technique: 
-Standing at Yasaka Shrine with a transparent umbrella on a rainy night, watching the red lanterns turn into blood mist in the rain curtain 
- On the 10th of every month, on Geisha Emblem Day, follow the kimono delivery truck to the Nishijin weaving workshop and pick up the gold thread scraps from the tailor&#39;s knife 

Magical realism attack 
When you scoop up matcha shaved ice in the tea house, the &quot;geisha&quot; outside the window suddenly takes off her wig - that&#39;s a part-time cross-dressing job for a Ukrainian student earning ￥1,500 per hour. Even more absurd is the Hanamikoji vending machine: put in ￥5,000 to get a &quot;Geisha Breathing Air Can&quot;, scan the code to display the ingredients list
