Day 8 – Kyoto
Today you will explore Arashiyama known as Bamboo Forest, is a pleasant, touristy district in the western outskirts of Kyoto. The area has been a popular destination since the Heian Period (794-1185), when nobles would enjoy its natural setting. Arashiyama is particularly popular during the cherry blossom and fall color seasons.
The Togetsukyo Bridge is Arashiyama’s well known, central landmark. Many small shops, restaurants and other attractions are found nearby, including Tenryuji Temple, Arashiyama’s famous bamboo groves and pleasure boats that are available for rent on the river.
North of central Arashiyama the atmosphere becomes less touristy and more rural, with several small temples scattered along the base of the wooded mountains. The area north of the Togetsukyo Bridge is also known as Sagano, while “Arashiyama” technically refers just to the mountains south of the river but is commonly used to name the entire district.
After lunch you will experience the Samurai.
You will first be given a tour of the samurai residence before dressing in “Hakama,” or samurai garb. Every guest will wear these elegant black outfits, and there begins the timeslip experience. After that, you can take in a very factual lecture about samurai, covering their history and various roles in Japan’s various eras. The masters will then perform live traditional music and demonstrate some extremely amazing sword skills that are sure to leave you speechless.

Gion attracts tourists with its high concentration of traditional wooden machiya merchant houses. Due to the fact that property taxes were formerly based upon street frontage, the houses were built with narrow facades only five to six meters wide, but extend up to twenty meters in from the street.
