Peaceful Bamboo Grove in Central Japan | a (brisk) Walking Tour through the Japanese Countryside

The “Minoda Bamboo Forest Road” is a walking path through the beautiful countryside of Matsusaka (Mie Prefecture, Japan). This path connects the “Minoda Daibutsu” 美濃田大仏 temple area with Matsusaka’s popular family destination, “Bell Farm”(松坂農業公園ベルファーム). This is a fantastic place to spend a couple of hours on the weekend, especially if you have kids.

  1. Even though I basically live in the area, I didn’t discover this magical little path until last year. It’s especially cool because on one side there’s a historically significant Buddhist temple and “Daibutsu” statue — and on the other, an expansive, green park with a restaurant, a cafe, and one of the best gelato shops I’ve ever been to. Love this area!

  2. "Peaceful Bamboo Grove" explored by a not so peaceful pace. Slow your roll and make it a regular video. That was the LONGEST YouTube short video I've seen in a long time and the 'angry walk' killed the peacefulness of the birds and breeze through the bamboo.

    Next time, walk like a Ninja.

  3. parks in Japan are out of this world on my trip last year to Japan i ended up visiting temples, shops, Tokyo, Osaka and so on and every time i think my time on those parks i get amazing urge to go back. Those forests/parks/groves are just magical.
