Kotosaka

Light-up of green maple leaves

Kotosaka is a famous spot for autumn leaves viewing in autumn. In summer, it transforms into a tunnel of green leaves. Experience a breathtaking display of lit-up green foliage. This is something you've never seen before!

Koushouji

Marumado (a circular window)

Explore interactive art showcased on a enigmatic circular window showcasing a scene from The Tale of Genji, set in Uji.

NAKED Distance Lantern®

NAKED's lantern art concept was created as a measure of COVID-19 prevention. When held, this participatory art form projects light onto a specific spot.

NAKED Tsukubai

This hand sanitizer-turned-artwork is inspired by the "tsukubai" ritual of purifying one's hands before entering a tea ceremony room. Reach in with your hands to dispense the disinfectant, and watch as a goldfish on your palms.
