Okochi Sanso

Fodor's Review:

Walk the estate grounds of Okochi's Mountain Villa to breathe in some contemplative peace—Denjiro Okochi, a renowned silent-movie actor of samurai films, chose this location for his home because of the superb views of Arashiyama and Kyoto. Admission to the villa includes tea and cake to enjoy while you absorb nature's pleasures.
