- 526 Shimokawaracho, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, 605-0825, Japan
The bamboo grove on the grounds of Kodaiji Temple in Higashiyama.
The crowd-free Arashiyama alternative: this grove has the same look as the famous Arashiyama Bamboo Forest but without the crush of people, so you can take your time and get clean photos. Part of the Kodaiji Temple grounds, a 5-minute walk from Yasaka Shrine, with night illuminations in spring, summer, and fall.
