Uji: A Journey of Tea Tasting and Autumn Appreciation

Uji, an ancient town in the southern part of Kyoto Prefecture, is renowned worldwide for its famous Uji tea. Visiting in autumn, the maple leaves along both banks of the Uji River blaze like fire, interwoven with red and yellow hues, creating a vibrant tapestry of colors (as shown in the picture). You can stroll along the riverside paths and admire the elegant scenery of boats gliding across the river. Additionally, the World Heritage site Byodoin Phoenix Hall and Ujigami Shrine, the oldest surviving shrine architecture in Japan, are historical and cultural treasures not to be missed. Immerse yourself in the tranquility and beauty of autumn, surrounded by the aroma of tea and the charm of ancient traditions.
