Want to bring out the kids somewhere safe, nice and inexpensive. The hubs and I brought the 3 youngest kids out to get a look at the Bamboo Sanctuary. It was a good 20 minute drive from.our home and easily found via Waze. Situated inside the compound of a seminary, it's quite easy to find, accessible and most importantly safe. Entrance is free. Just give out a donation upon registration. Registration, aside from filling out the registration sheet, involves non-contact temperature reading and hands free hand sanitizing. The place isn't uber big but it has a lot of hidden nooks and crannies to get your Bamboo-on 😂 A good tip too is to bring bug repellent. We went there around 3 in the afternoon and found ourselves hanging out with swarms of mosquitoes. Place is beautifully green, a.bit on the cool side and has a monkey (caged).in the property. Trash cans may be found in the area, so please, do not liter or vandalize the surfaces of gorgeous bamboo. Overall, we enjoyed our quick visit to the place. We did get gorgeous photos too in the process. If you're in need of a quick getaway and mental health break, this is a good...

The bamboo sanctuary is just located at the back of St. Francis Xavier Seminary. There's no entrance or admission fee but you can donate any amount from the bottom of your heart. If you love bamboo then this is a perfect place for you since it is not just only relaxing but also educational. It has bamboo exhibits where you can learn about bamboo plants. It is best to go here early in the morning for a perfect morning walk since it has trails for walking exercises. It has a clean toilet. But I still don't recommend this to seniors and to those who have a fear of heights. The place is so calm, relaxing, tranquil and picturesque. So if you haven't been to Arashiyama bamboo grove in Kyoto, Japan, I suggest that...
