if you’re a matcha lover, you need to visit Uji 🍵

As a matcha lover for most of my life, it was a no brainer to visit Uji in Japan, known for its rich historical significance in tea culture, high quality tea leaves, and home to the oldest tea shop in Japan. Located near Kyoto and surrounded by scenic nature, Uji also holds an important place in Japanese history and literature with two UNESCO World Heritage Sites and some of the oldest temples in Japan.
