Travel Journal 2018: Momiji in Arashiyama

Today was just perfect. With the absolute best photography weather, we visited the neighbouring town of Arashiyama. It was super crowded with tourists, but for good reason. The autumn leaves put on a spectacular show of green, yellow, and red shades.

To finish off, we went a bit further to Kameoka. We wanted to check out the ruins of Tanba Kameyama Castle there, but the entrance was closed off.

That wraps up our stay in Kyōto. Tomorrow we’ve got a 4½ hour Shinkansen ride ahead of us to Kagoshima.
