MK Guide Recommends
Ōkōchi Sansō Garden is a landscaped villa and garden on the slopes of Arashiyama, formerly the home of film actor Denjirō Ōkōchi. The grounds unfold along a gently ascending loop of paths, passing teahouses, open viewpoints, and carefully framed plantings that highlight seasonal change. Elevated sections of the garden offer wide views over Kyoto and the surrounding mountains, reinforcing a sense of distance from the town below. Entered from the edge of the bamboo grove, Ōkōchi Sansō is best experienced as a quiet counterbalance to Arashiyama’s busiest sights, rewarding slower movement and unhurried observation.
