Arashiyama

Autumn has finally come. It is the perfect seaon to take awalk, play any sports, for cycling and eating;)


Autumn makes me excited for no reason. I feel like going out somewhere else!

So, I went to Arashiyama which is one of my favorit places in Kyoto by bycicle. It was still bit hot, but sitting on the bench in the shade along the river gave me refreshment.

You can see the bridge in the photo below ( really small though) which is called Togetsukyo and this is a landmark in Arashiyama.


There are lot more other attractions here, for example beautiful bamboo groves, Tenryuji temple recored by World Heritage Site and Sagano Romantic Train.

Travel to another city

I went to small trip to FUKUI prefecture last weekend. for Fukui I leave Kyoto at 11am I arrive there about 2pm by car. I have never been there before this is my first time. I live in kyoto city so I do not have so many chance to watch sea so I really enjoy driving the sea front . Fukui is very famous for sea food and hot spring. The weather is very cold when I was there so hot spring was really nice to keep me warm after the hot spring I had seafood. on the way hope I still feel warm because of the hot spring . I could really enjoy and relax on this small trip. From Kyoto station to Fukui station is 1hour and half by Shinkansen.
