Arashiyama Monkey Park Iwatayama is the perfect place to encounter snow monkeys and other wild animals in their natural environment. Visitors can explore the mountainside by taking a short thirty-minute hike, and afterwards be rewarded with an amazing view of the city, mountains, and river with a bright blue sky stretched out over all. At the peak, visitors can feed the eager macaques, letting them grab food out of their hands while observing them in their habitat safely from behind a caged window area. The park is easily accessible from Hankyu Arashiyama Station or JR Saga-Arashiyama Station and is open year-round, making it the perfect outdoor adventure anyone can enjoy.
