A day in the countryside






I went off to the country side of Kyoto with my friends.

Japan is famous for it’s technology and developed cities.

I wonder if many people knows the fact that 80% of the land of Japan is forest and mountains.

Although Kyoto is a big city, there is a deep forest within 10minuites ride on the bike.

As the most of the space in the country side is very hilly,

you get to see beautiful terrace rise farms.

Soak in to the onsen(hot spring) and release fatigue of the crazy working days.

I wish travelers get to know and get to go more hidden beautiful places of Japan.
