Kyoto, a city rich in history, is the cultural heart of Japan. Whether it’s cherry blossoms in spring or crimson leaves in autumn, every season reveals a different charm. Temples, shrines, ancient streets, and natural beauty intertwine to create a poetic landscape. Famous landmarks like Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu-dera, and Fushimi Inari Taisha showcase the city’s deep cultural heritage.

In the southern part of Kyoto lies Uji, a tranquil town full of traditional charm. Renowned for its matcha (green tea), Uji is one of the birthplaces of Japanese tea culture. Visitors can stroll along the Uji River, admire the elegant architecture of Byodoin Temple, or sip a cup of rich matcha in a teahouse, enjoying a moment of peace.

Whether it’s the historic grace of Kyoto or the tea-scented calm of Uji, both are destinations worth exploring and experiencing with all your senses.
