SEPTEMBER 2024 | RESEARCH VISIT TO KIYOMIZUDERA TEMPLE

Venue: Sagaogurayama Tabuchiyamacho, Ukyo Ward, Kyoto, 616-8394, Japan

On September 2024, we had the incredible opportunity to visit the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove during our cultural trip. Nestled on the outskirts of Kyoto, Japan, this renowned eco-tourism destination is famous for its dense, towering bamboo forest.

Bamboo, one of the fastest-growing plants in the world, plays a crucial role in carbon sequestration by absorbing significant amounts of carbon dioxide.

This makes bamboo forests like Arashiyama vital in our efforts to combat climate change.

Visiting and preserving these natural bamboo forests not only highlights their beauty but also underscores their potential in supporting broader decarbonization initiatives.

Together, we can create a sustainable future by embracing and preserving the natural world around us!
