Uji City Botanical Park — Attraction in Uji

This little city is one of the UNESCO world’s heritage sites here in Japan. It’s a stone’s throw away from Kyoto via a short train ride. Very beautiful parks and surroundings. Very clean and peaceful. It has a few shrines like the Ukikami Jinja Shrine which is lovely to visit. The famous Uji bridge is a good photo opportunity site too. Another wonderful thing to do here is to watch the ancient tradition of Cormorant Fishing. The fishermen put on fishing shows , but you need to book tickets and schedule in their tourist office. Uji is very famous too for Matcha tea so...

Fantastic garden Lots of interesting plants and flowers. They house some endangered and threatened species inside their green house.

The large flower mural changes every year.

For 500¥ I highly recommend checking...
