World heritage site and lots of history! Definitely worth a stop by when visiting Uji.

This shrine represents everything beautiful about the Japanese aesthetic. Simple, pure and inspiring. As uplifting as a cathedral, but tucked into a rock garden, surrounded by Japanese maples and a stream

Small, but beautiful. This is in the world heritage list of historic monument of ancient Kyoto. When you visit Uji city, please come here.

Small and a bit underwhelming. But the rabbit is kinda cute. If you want merchandise, they have cute rabbit charms here.
