With the rich history of Uji, the park is located among several historical sites, including the Uji-bashi Bridge and the Ujinowakiiratsuko Gobo tomb, housing the historic site Ujigawataikotsutsumiato (remains of the dike of Uji River that were constructed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi).
At the Communication Center of Tea and Uji Land called Chazuna, you can enjoy the museum and various experience programs related to Uji and Uji tea.
