To see the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest without to much tourists always blocking your way is to get up very early ~0600, eat no breakfast at your hotel (would take to much time) and than get on the train and change at the right stops.
We did make it ~0930 there, but this was a bit too late. The whole site was just filling with people.
It is ok, I will find a spot to take a picture without having some random dude with his sweatpants on it.
These tourists man, they just have no style...
And I did.
Timber!
Next stop, a temple. Who would have guessed that?
