Simply beautiful Japanese scenes, Arashiyama bamboo groves

I love visiting the bamboo grove of Arashiyama, I strolled along the trail many times and I was always fascinated by the magical atmosphere created by the smooth bamboo stalks and the filtered light.

And every here and there, there's a tree interrupting the monotony, it's almost like this place was made according to the Japanese garden principles (I'm thinking especially of asymmetry)... Simply beautiful!
