A famous spot in Arashiyama, Kyoto. The scenery changes beautifully with each season.

Iga Ueno Castle
In 1585, Sadatsugu Tsutsui built a castle on the plateau where Heirakuji Temple had been located. In 1608, after Sadatsugu's territory was confiscated by Ieyasu Tokugawa, Takatora Todo, who was said to be a master of castle construction, entered Iga. He renovated and expanded the castle to focus on fortifying the western side of it so that it could counter a battle against the Osaka and Toyotomi forces. At that time, a five-story castle tower was built, but it collapsed due to a great storm in 1612. After that, turrets, a main gate, and a palace were built, but the castle tower was never rebuilt.
When you come here, don't miss the Ninja Museum next door!

Takeo Shrine
It is a 1200-year-old shrine located at the eastern foot of Mt.Mifune. Takeuchi no Sukune, the main deity, is known as the god of the longest life span in Japan and is said to bring good fortune, good luck, and protection from bad luck.
There's a giant camphor tree here that's over 3,000 years old—it's a real eye-catcher! The most popular thing at Takeo Shrine is the 'Great Camphor Amulet.' If you visit, you should definitely take one home.
