“Chikurin-no-Komichi” is a pleasant path winding through a bamboo grove at the Shuzen-ji Spa resort. It is only 100m long, connecting the Katsura-bashi and Kaede-bashi bridges, but once you enter the path, you feel a refreshing and magical air. Sitting on a round bamboo bench and looking up at the sky, you are showered with cool and crisp green, full of healthy ions! Bamboo forests are mysterious. The red bridge beyond the bamboo looks brighter, and the buildings between the bamboo seem more elegant. At the same time, the bamboo trees work as blinds to the outside world.

What a contrast, the red bridges and the green bamboo. What the photos can't show is the rustling and knocking when breezes blow.
