Uji is one of the most beautiful and peaceful towns near Kyoto famous for its tea, riverside paths, autumn colors, and gentle atmosphere.
Just 30 minutes from Kyoto, it’s the perfect escape if you want calm streets, nature, and a slower side of Japan.
In this video, I take you on a cinematic slow walk through Uji in the heart of autumn.
We enjoy a unique coffee shop filled with vinyls, stroll along the river, cross quiet bridges, admire golden ginkgo trees, and explore temples nestled at the foot of the mountains.
If you’re looking for a peaceful day trip from Kyoto, a relaxing place to breathe, or a destination that captures the charm of everyday Japan, Uji is truly special especially in autumn.
We visit the riverside paths, wander through backstreets, discover Kosho-ji and Uji-jinja, explore hidden areas, and enjoy the soft light and colors that make this season magical.
