Café : Fukujuen, along the Uji River
This is Fukujuen tea shop founded in 1790. It is located along Uji River near Byodoin Temple. The shop looks new, spacious and bright Japanese interior. I felt graceful with having the fragrant Uji matcha tea while looking at the view of Uji River.
Tea making machines are on display at the store. These are wonderful machines that does the hand work process instead. The process is introduced in detail.
Café Time 2 : Nakamura Tokichi
This is also a popular long-established tea shop, Nakamura Tokichi tea shop. You can see the shop curtain from the approach on the way to Byodoin Temple. The café is a relaxed atmosphere like being at home. I had the No.1 popular matcha jelly at this shop. It is a deep luxurious matcha taste! ^^
