Entry price 1,000 Yen is a bit high but you will see very beautiful garden and scenery. Wear shoes suitable for hiking . Entrance fee includes a cup of green tea and snack . Enjoy it after your walk.

The ¥1000 entrance fee pay off especially when the bamboo grove is full of people. This way you can actually experience the peace and quiet of the garden .

Beautiful garden to escape the crowds in Arashiyama, matcha tea served on a terrace overlooking the bamboo forest and a lovely postcard included in entry fee

Brommabo

Beautiful garden with a fantastic view over Kyoto just at the bamboo forest . Because of the entrance fee of 1000 yen (autumn 2018) its not crowded at all. Green tea is included in the fee.

Sofia Papastamelos

This is a great thing to do if the rest of the park and bamboo groves are very crowded . This was a nice quiet walk and we enjoyed the tea .

Brian Bimschleger

The view is amazing. Besides that, be prepared for a peaceful walk, combo’d with the opportunity to draw some Japanese Shodo calligraphy.

Feel the oxygen power in OhkouchiSansou, even scattered small fallen leaves on the grass look beautiful as if by enchantment intentionally. Admission fee ¥1,000 as of 14/11.

Alex Tsu

Beautiful garden and view of the mountains out back; your entrance fee includes a warm cup of tea and snack

Amiro P.

So serene! If you want to escape the tourist crowed from the nearby bamboo forest .

Fiona

Used to be a villa but its impressive gardens are now opened to the public @ 1000 yen per entry. Was here during autumn, it's well worth it!

Ty Smith

Worth the entry price for a less crowded area among the bamboo groves and amazing views .

Joshua Haftel

Beautiful location, so many nice spots. Don't let the rather steep (¥1000) entry fee deter!

Pamela Pizarro

Beautiful. Enjoy and take your time to walk, meditate and take pictures

Viktor Kiyashko

Beautiful garden ! Worth the price especially if the tea is included.

Thailan Pham

Very nice garden

No es imprescindible pero al estar al final del bambusal se ve rápido. El jardín mejor en otoño

입장료가 비싸긴하지만 맛있는 말차를 제공함. 봄 벚꽃시즌 또는 가을 단풍시즌에 오면 진짜 예쁠듯.

Chiara Ferrari

Da visitare. Luogo del cuore.
