Uji, Kyoto Prefettura
A colpo d'occhio
Prince Uji no Wakiratsuoko, the enshrined deity, learned from Korean scholars and became known as the founder of Japanese education, making this shrine a favorite among students preparing for exams.
A rabbit once guided the shrine's deity here by turning back repeatedly on the road, inspiring the 'mikaeri usagi' (looking-back rabbit) legend that now draws visitors seeking guidance on life's correct path.

Servizi
Arrive with cash for parking and offerings, as the lot charges 700 yen per day and operates only from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The shrine's location near the Uji River and Asagiri Bridge makes it accessible by train (about 9 minutes from Keihan Uji Station), which may be easier than driving if you're unfamiliar with the area.
Plan to visit on a weekday morning if you want to photograph the main hall and grounds without crowds. The shrine's peaceful setting among trees along the Uji River is best appreciated when you're not jostling with other visitors, and the light through the foliage is clearest earlier in the day.
If you collect goshuin (shrine stamps), note that the shrine offers five original goshuin books at 2,000 yen each in different colors, plus three additional stamp designs (shrine name, deity name, and rabbit motif) at 500 yen each.
Seek out the 'mikaeri usagi' (見返り兎) rabbit statue and the power spot deeper in the shrine grounds. These aren't prominently marked, so ask the staff at the shrine office if you're having trouble locating them, as they're central to the shrine's unique appeal and the legend of the rabbit that guided the deity to this location.
If you're praying for exam success or academic achievement, arrive before 4 p.m. to take advantage of the shrine's formal prayer services (祈祷), which are accepted until that time.
Grab one of the special rabbit-themed omamori (charms) or the cute 'usagi omikuji' (rabbit fortune) before leaving. These are specific to Uji Shrine and sell out during busy seasons, so don't assume you can pick them up on a return visit.

Uji-Schrein 宇治神社

Pianifica una breve passeggiata dalla stazione di Uji, circa 10 minuti da Keihan Uji o 15 da JR Uji. Dal ponte di Uji, è un percorso piacevole lungo il fiume, e molti visitatori attraversano anche il ponte Asagiri al ritorno per godere della vista.
Il santuario è più tranquillo rispetto ai siti turistici vicini, quindi puoi pregare a un ritmo rilassato. La sua divinità principale è Ujino Wakiiratsuko no Mikoto, e il terreno include un sito di culto remoto dello Ise Shrine e dello Kashiwabara Shrine. I dettagli dei conigli si trovano ovunque, in particolare il "Mikaeri Usagi" presso la sala di culto, il bacino d'acqua, e negli omikuji e negli amuleti.

Prince Uji no Wakiratsuoko, the enshrined deity, learned from Korean scholars and became known as the founder of Japanese education, making this shrine a favorite among students preparing for exams.
A rabbit once guided the shrine's deity here by turning back repeatedly on the road, inspiring the 'mikaeri usagi' (looking-back rabbit) legend that now draws visitors seeking guidance on life's correct path.
The shrine's custom rabbit-shaped omikuji (fortune papers) have become so popular that they're now sold alongside five original designs of御朱印 stamp books, each priced at 2,000 yen.
The main hall, built in the early Kamakura period, is designated a National Important Cultural Property and houses a wooden seated statue of Prince Uji no Wakiratsuoko, also nationally protected.
