Walking into the time tunnel - Autumn tour of Uji Shrine

"Uji Shrine", located in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, the ancient capital of Japan, is a shrine with a history of thousands of years. It is famous for literary classics such as "Uji Bridge" and "The Tale of Genji". In autumn, it attracts many tourists to come and worship and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Stepping into Uji Shrine is like walking into a time tunnel and returning to the old days of the Heian period. Inside the shrine, there are the red "Hyalium Gate", the blue-gray "Main Hall", and the "Kushu Wood Torii" on both sides, all of which are stunning ancient buildings.

Uji Shrine becomes especially beautiful in autumn. As you step into the area, you can see red leaves swaying in the breeze, like a fairyland. In particular, "Akiba Mountain" located in the territory is the best viewing point for viewing maple leaves. Looking into the distance, you can even see the scenery of Uji city, which is a beautiful scene that cannot be described in words.

If you are planning an autumn trip, Uji Shrine is definitely a place you cannot miss. Here, you can not only feel the ancient cultural heritage, but also enjoy the beautiful scenery of autumn and taste authentic food.
