Activities in the tea fields of Uji surrounded by the scent of mist, where you can experience "another Kyoto" that has continued for 800 years

Experience the origins of the Uji tea culture in the "home of Uji tea," the Yamashiro region in southern Kyoto.

Enjoy a variety of handmade experiences using high-quality tea leaves inside a former tea factory. Try your hand at "tea tasting" in the hidden tea fields shrouded in deep mist, or take part in a "hand-rolled tea making" experience, where you can make your own original tea by kneading the tea leaves by hand. There is also a programme called the "tea chef experience," in which you can cook and serve foods such as "cha-gayu" (tea porridge) and "Uji tea cookies." In the Yamada area of the Kamo District of Kizugawa City, another Kyoto that is unknown to many but has a free-spirited culture, you can experience the little-known origins of Uji tea culture.
