Lost in Kyoto and Nara: Arashiyama, Todaiji Temple and Nara Park

Today's weather has become cold, as if frozen. The reason for choosing to go to Arashiyama today is actually because the weather forecast shows that there will be cloudy and rainy days in the next few days, and the scenery may not be as good as on sunny days. So I checked the weather forecast and decided to go to Arashiyama today. The luggage storage machine is really convenient. There are multiple languages available on the screen, and then I followed the prompts to store: Find an empty locker and put the luggage in. Pull down the lock to ensure it is locked. Back to the screen here, confirm whether the green locker displayed on the screen is the locker where I just stored the luggage. If confirmed, click on the green locker square on the screen, swipe the bus card to complete the payment. The machine will spit out a small ticket after confirmation, and then you can leave. I took a car from Kyoto Station to Kameoka, which is the starting station of the Arashiyama train. After arriving at Kameoka Station, there is a map at the exit indicating the route to the train station. You can search for the English name of the train station on the map for navigation. I stayed on the small train until the penultimate station (Arashiyama Station) and got off. Then I first went to Jojakkoji Temple (many people choose the bamboo forest as the first stop). The weather is really good, sunny. After leaving Jojakkoji Temple, I also went to the bamboo forest. When the wind blows, the bamboo makes a rustling sound, which is refreshing. Then, I went to the Ouchi River Villa Garden. The ticket price is 1,000 yen, including a matcha. I first tasted a cup of matcha to warm up. After drinking, I continued to explore. At Myokouan, I enjoyed a quiet moment of my own, which is really healing. Then, I entered the information center, which made me feel a little scared. After leaving the Ouchi River Villa Garden, I walked along the river to the next destination. Then, I went to Tenryuji Temple. After leaving Tenryuji Temple, I returned to the river. Next, I plan to go to Nara. I first took the JR train back to Kyoto Station, retrieved my luggage, and then continued to take the JR train to Nara. When I arrived in Nara, the hotel I booked was near the JR station, which was very convenient haha. After checking in, I found that the view outside the window was also beautiful. I got up at 8 o'clock the next morning, and after breakfast, I took a bus to Todaiji Temple. In the small woods next to Todaiji Temple, there are signs reminding you to be careful of wild boars, haha. The little deer in the woods cuddle each other, which is touching. Finally, I came to Todaiji Temple. The Great Buddha is indeed spectacular. After leaving Todaiji Temple, I walked to Nara Park. I feel that the park is filled with a smell of cowshed (deer poop), can I say this? Haha. I strolled in the park, admiring the beautiful scenery. Wakakusayama is behind, it looks a bit bald. Then, I went to Kasuga Taisha Shrine. In each place, I stayed quietly and enjoyed these wonderful moments.
