点评:This is a famous bridge and a must-see in any visit to Uji..
It is also the first major landmark when one as you exit Keihan Uji Station. It was a Saturday noon time when we reached here after our visit to Byodoin Temple 平等院. Uji River ran along the center of city with many teahouses and cafés lining the banks on either sides. The Bridge is at junction of main roads and hence always crowded with both locals & tourists, scattered in the shopping Oharai-machi looking for souvenirs, snacks, or queuing in front of the famous sweets shop.
There is a sign by the road declaring it to be one of the oldest bridges in Japan. It has been destroyed and rebuilt many times throughout the years and the current bridge was completed back in 1996 and features bronze ornamental caps along its balustrade, with the attempt that the design will harmonize well with the surrounding landscape. There are also several of Uji's many Tale of Genji monuments placed at different locations.
The banks of the Uji River are a perfect place to enjoy a picnic in the shade of the trees but in July summer we only saw a few..
We walked along the bridge for a short distance to have a wider view of the surrounding and the river itself! To feel the breeze and hear the rushing water of Uji is really refreshing.. just that the summer heat took much jog that we did not stay too long at the site.
We came using of JR Pass to the Temple and after the visit return using the Keihan line instead to Kyoto sta.
At certain junction it reminds me of Kyoto Arashiyama bridge. Both elegant and longstanding...
翻译:这是一座著名的桥,是每次去宇治必看的景点。
这也是您从京阪宇治站出来后看到的第一个主要地标。我们参观平等院后到达这里时是星期六中午。宇治川沿着市中心流淌,两岸林立着许多茶馆和咖啡馆。这座桥位于主要道路的交汇处,因此总是挤满了当地人和游客,他们分散在购物区大良町寻找纪念品、小吃,或者在著名的糖果店前排队。
路边有一块牌子,上面写着它是日本最古老的桥梁之一。多年来,它曾多次被摧毁和重建,目前的桥梁于 1996 年完工,其栏杆上有青铜装饰帽,设计旨在与周围景观相协调。宇治还有许多《源氏物语》纪念碑,它们位于不同的位置。
宇治河岸是享受树荫下野餐的绝佳地点,但在 7 月的夏天,我们只看到了几座。
我们沿着桥走了一小段距离,可以更广阔地欣赏周围的景色和河流本身!感受微风,听着宇治奔流的流水,真是令人神清气爽。只是夏天的炎热使我们慢跑了很久,所以我们没有在那里呆太久。
我们用 JR Pass 来到寺庙,参观后,改乘京阪线返回京都站。
在某个路口,它让我想起了京都岚山桥。既优雅又悠久……
