Kyoto Arashiyama 🌸Romantic Flower Sea Day Tour Guide

When the cherry blossom season comes, Kyoto's Arashiyama is like magic, firmly grasping my heart! Today I will share the guide of a one-day tour to Arashiyama with my sisters. It is fun and interesting to visit. Just go for it💕

💖Arashiyama Cherry Blossoms: Fun and Enjoyable

1. Sagano Train: This is the best option for cherry blossom viewing in Arashiyama! Take a 25-minute ride on a retro train along the Hozu River. Through the car window, on one side is the clear river water, and on the other side is a whole row of pink cherry blossoms flying past your eyes, just like walking into a romantic anime scene. I especially recommend the fifth open carriage, as there are no windows blocking the view and you feel as if you can touch the cherry blossoms with your hands. But this carriage is not open every day, so whether you can experience it depends on luck.

2. Togetsukyo Bridge: This wooden bridge from the Heian period is very historical. Standing on the bridge, large patches of cherry blossoms come into view. As the breeze blows, the cherry petals fall down, as if pink snow is falling. It is so beautiful that leaves you speechless. Moreover, Togetsukyo Bridge is the filming location for many film and television dramas, so you might run into the crew while walking around.

3. Tenryuji Temple and Other Temples🌸: In the Tenryuji Temple, Jojakkoji Temple and other temples in the Arashiyama area, cherry blossoms and ancient temples set off each other. The red walls and green tiles are matched with pink cherry blossoms. Whether it is a panoramic view or a close-up, the photo is super good, and the atmosphere is directly maximized.

📅Scenery of cherry blossom season in recent years

Due to the weather in the past few years, the flowering period of cherry blossoms in Arashiyama was not very stable. For example, in 2024, it was predicted that the flowers would bloom on March 23 and be in full bloom on March 31. However, it snowed on March 21, and the flowering period was delayed by a whole week. But if you think about it from another perspective, this also adds a surprise to cherry blossom viewing, and every cherry blossom season is unique. This year, the Japan Meteorological Corporation predicts that Japan will usher in the cherry blossom season in mid-to-late March. Kyoto's Arashiyama will definitely be breathtakingly beautiful, so sisters can plan ahead.

🚗Advantages of chartering a car for a day trip

1. Freedom and peace of mind: No need to transfer between attractions, you can go wherever you want at your own pace.

2. Comfortable and convenient: When you are tired of playing, you can just get on the car to rest. You can also put your luggage on the car, which is relaxing and comfortable.

3. Exclusive service: We have professional drivers who are skilled in driving and can share interesting local knowledge and little-known places.

🤣 Fun things to do during the trip

Last time, a sister was so focused on posing to take beautiful photos with cherry blossoms that she almost fell into the stream nearby. Fortunately, her companions were quick to pull her back. Every time I think of this incident, I find it funny and it has become an interesting memory of my journey.
