Students sometimes ask me what my favorite place in Japan is. That’s a  difficult question to answer because there are so many great places. But if I had so say just one place, it would be Arashiyama in Kyoto. If you’re there on a sunny day, it’s a glorious spot. The Togetsukyo Bridge is impressive and it’s great to stroll by the river and watch the boats go by. Whenever I go, I visit Tenryu-ji with its wonderful garden. It’s beautiful in spring when the cherry blossom is in full bloom and in autumn when the trees’ leaves are changing color. 

Of course, Arashiyama is popular with tourists and it can get very crowded. I haven’t been there for a few years so I’m not sure how crowded it gets these days, but I found that if you are prepared to walk a bit, it’s possible to escape the crowds. Besides Tenryu-ji, there are numerous other temples and gardens to explore.
