Enrich your trip to Uji City with a unique tea ceremony experience at Taiho-an, an authentic teahouse located next to Uji Municipal Tourist Center that focuses on spreading the knowledge and rich history of this traditional Japanese art. The teahouse sits on the levee of the Uji River across the Phoenix Hall of Byodo-in Temple, thus named Taiho-an, meaning teahouse across from the phoenix. Visitors to this teahouse can not only savor fine tea through the tea ceremony experience but also relish in the authentic, tranquil space.
