📍Uji｜World Heritage Byodoin Phoenix Hall

☔️The quiet beauty limited to rainy days, as if walking into a thousand years of time

Walking through the old streets of Uji in the drizzle, with a transparent umbrella and a wet suit, you can see the beautiful reflection of the Phoenix Hall quietly reflected in the pool. The vermilion buildings and the lush green gardens add a sense of solemnity under the gray sky, and every step seems to be in the rhythm of the Heian period.

Walking along the shrine to the main gate, on one side is the low-key old house street, and on the other side is the entrance to the Buddhist world. After entering the park, the Phoenix Hall is like a building that has walked out of the painting "Pure Land of Bliss", and the golden phoenix on the roof is still shining in the rain.

🌿Even if the weather is not good, this place is still incredibly beautiful, perhaps even better than a sunny day.

📸 Must-see attractions: Phoenix Hall pond reflection, bell tower against red leaves
🗓 Recommended season: cherry blossom viewing in spring/maple viewing in autumn (but there are also surprises on rainy days)
🚆 Transportation: About 10 minutes walk from JR Uji Station
