The Arashiyama Bamboo Grove is one of the most popular experiences in Kyoto, Japan. You can feel like a small bug walking amidst the rising stalks of bamboo. It's as if you traveled to another planet.
In Japan, bamboo symbolizes strength and resilience. The grove is deeply tied to the history of this region (794-1195) when it was an exclusive retreat for Japanese emperors, nobles, and aristocrats seeking refuge from the busy cities.
The gentle knocking sound of the bamboo stalks in the wind as one of the official "100 Soundscapes of Japan".
