My wife and I went to the Shoraian restaurant and LOVED it. Although their website said you don't need reservations for lunch, they had that sign up saying they were fully booked up. We walked up and asked them if they could accommodate us anyway and they kindly seated us! Incredible restaurant where every dish is based on tofu.
I'm going to see Arashiyama in March, and I'm super excited. I've never seen mountains in person, I bet I will take lots of pictures! Thank you for the lovely video :)
Not too long to wait! You'll have a fantastic time :-) I've been doing blog posts on cakeswithfaces.co.uk to go with the videos, with info about how to get there etc, if you need any help planning :-)
If you have a chance to come to Japan. You should come to Okutama for enjoying Japanese nature or Japanese Alps, If your money allowed. Tateyama mountain or Kamikochi must be awesome place!
I think the bottom right Kanji (ryu) means dragon. It looks similar to the Kanji for dragon :) How long does it take roughly from the start of the bridge to the bamboo forest? I'm going in March and I'm worried I've packed too much into my itinerary haha
Ah thank you! I know, you want to see everything, right? :-) They're not too far away from each other - you can walk between the bridge, bamboo forest and station in about 10-15 minutes between each. We just took time exploring! From Arashiyama we went on to Kinkakuji in the same day, on the Randen tramway (in my next video!), but you could spend a whole day in Arashiyama, if you went on the boat trip or scenic train as well, or went to the monkey park.
nice travel log. But why oh why do girls paint their hair such silly colours these days? It adds nothing to your beauty, doesn't somehow indicate your are creative, or artistic or "fashionable". It's just silly.
Nice video! Please come back to Kyoto again, if any chances. 👍
I hope I can! There are still lots of things I didn't see so I'd love to come back one day!

Thanks for the recommendations! There are so many places I want to see! :-)
We are just heading in now. We are staying in Kyoto.
Have an amazing time! My favs in Kyoto were Fushimi Inari and wandering around Gion
Already fallen in love with your hair
Thank you! I'm always changing the colour :-)
The kanji is the name of the temple 天龍寺 (tenryuuji), or "sky" "dragon" "temple". Hour is 時
Ah thank you! What a great name :-) I'm still a beginner at kanji!

Cakes with Faces that's great to know :) thank you for replying and I'll keep my eyes peeled for your next video!!
I wanna go to Japan with you!!!!!
Haha I want to go back too!
Cakes with Faces let's go I don't know how to read Japanese. I've always wanted to go. Been binge watching your videos and I'm jealous
I hope you can make it one day! It's a good incentive to learn to read Japanese; start with katakana and hiragana!
Cakes with Faces I sure will. Planning on going in the fall
Sorry Okutama not the alps but works for camping.
What month did you travel? :)
Route. 7 October. It was still really warm at the start, about 28 degrees C!
Was this in December?
sjwilkin It was October - still very warm in Japan at that time :-)
Ah ok thanks. Looking to go in November next year. Went a few years ago in April and was 21c+ every day
sjwilkin You might be able to see the autumn colours in November, they hadn’t started yet in October. Have a great trip & enjoy Japlanning!

Thanks for the hair advice!
You took the time to comment this? Why? Ever heard the phrase” if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all?”
"I do love me a good bamboo forest" - thanks for teaching people how NOT to speak English. Not helpful.
