Ten'ryu-ji to Togetsu Bridge through Bamboo forest

We got to Randen train station from Kitano Tenmangu Shrine through narrow alleys which everyone felt to be taken to some mysterious places by GTS. From the east terminal to the west terminal of the Randen train, students got to Arashiyama area where we dismissed for lunch before visiting Ten'ryu-ji temple. We were able to enter the main building as well as its famous garden around "heavenly dragon pond." As soon as exiting from the north gate, another exquisite scene of the bamboo forest welcomed students. Through the bamboo alleys students reaches the hilltop scenic point from which small river boats and sightseeing trains could be seen. Students went down to the Oi river and got to the Arashiyama park through Togetsu Bridge (Across the moon). Hankyu train line took us to the center of the city from which everyone went home. The weather was perfect after the nasty rainy day yesterday!
