Enjoy a moment of quiet reflection in the calm surroundings of Manpuku-ji. You just never know — the answers to a few of life's major questions may be hidden behind its doors.

This place of worship is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Uji. But Manpuku-ji isn't the only highlight in the area. Kiyomizu Temple, Fushimi Inari Shrine, and Kyoto Tower are some other recommended attractions nearby.
