Traveling the World #99 (Asia Series) Uji, Japan (Part 2)

in #travel6 years ago (edited)

Hi Everyone,

Continuing on from the last blog, if you are a tea lover, you definitely need to come to Uji in particular, Byodoin Omotesando.

There are many tea stores, dessert stores, restaurants all sell items linked to green tea. Its like a green tea wonderland! As you walk along the main shopping trip, do check out some the stores in particular - a famous tea shop called Itohkyuemon (伊藤久右衛門). It is by far the most popular and had the largest variety on the strip. I will take you for a visit in another blog.

At Byodoin Omotesando, not only you see a line of shops and restaurants, it is also the way to the famous Byodoin which I have shared previously.

When you are walking around and about, do look for some cute statues or signages.

While I was shopping and browsing around, my other half decided to get a box of green tea dessert. Nicely packaged and the dessert itself was very green teay (is there such a word? haha)

大家好,今日我會帶你們到宇治的商店街.這裏有很多商店買茶葉,甜品,餐廳,全部都對綠茶有關的.到這條街最多人買手信的商店就是伊藤久右衛門.下一集我會帶你們到這間商店看看.商店街不是只有商店和餐廳,其實也是很有我之前介紹過的宇治星巴克, 平等院 & 鳳凰堂。

That looks like a nice beautiful town. I need to visit it sometime. Japan is just so beautiful.

yah we went in winter so it was pretty cold but bearable

That statue is so strange as well as cute I am curious about what it represents :) As anywhere in Japan that city of has an attractive architecture. That green tea dessert looks delicious

You find some weird and wonderful statues in Japan and they are all unique in their own ways :)
