Message from Tabimawari

A UNESCO World Heritage Buddhist temple, famous for its Phoenix Hall (鳳凰堂) — featured on the Japanese ¥10 coin. Built in the 11th century in Uji, it’s a prime example of Heian-era architecture. The peaceful riverside setting, along with the garden and adjacent museum, make for a well-rounded visit.

Entrance fee: ¥600 (includes temple and museum).
Touristy?: Fairly touristy, especially during cherry blossom and autumn foliage seasons.
