Just a 4-minute walk from Keihan Uji Station, Kyoto Uji House offers direct rapid express access to Kyoto Station in a mere 16 minutes—no transfers needed! Perfectly situated for city access and local discovery.

Only steps away, experience the World Heritage Byodoin Temple, the serene Uji River, and Ujibashi-dori Shopping Street, a 12-minute stroll from JR Uji Station toward Ujibashi Bridge, home to around 60 local shops. 

It’s a haven for unwinding with housemates, taking in Uji’s mountain views, and enjoying the peaceful riverside—a place to refresh, relax, and call home.

Ujibashi-dori Shopping Street, famous for Uji matcha, sweets, and other local specialties, is always lively with visitors due to its close proximity to the Byodoin Temple.

One of the highlights of the area is the ease of visiting Byodoin Temple to enjoy its historic buildings and beautiful scenery anytime you like!

The retro “Osakaya Market,” established in 1962, offers a variety of local spots including candy shops, pizzerias, and cafes—exploring the market is a fun experience with surprises around every corner.
