Uji, Kyoto, 🇯🇵 Japan

About this stone

Another famous Japanese destination hides in Uji, a historic town near Kyoto best known for its tea, temples, and tranquil riverside setting. Uji Shrine, believed to date back more than a thousand years, sits among the trees near the Uji River and is one of the area’s important Shinto shrines. Interesting fact: Uji is considered one of Japan’s most famous tea-producing regions, especially for its high-quality matcha, which has been produced here for centuries. And now a penguin stones hides here.
