Uji Country Club

Uji Country Club has operated as a semi-private course in Uji city since 1963, designed by architect Osamu Ueda, the same designer behind Osaka Golf Club across the prefectural border, and playing 6,271 yards from the back tees with a 70.7 rating and 121 slope. The club offers golf carts and a full practice setup including a driving range and putting green, with locker rooms and dining amenities in the clubhouse, and operates year round. Uji is one of the most historically and culturally significant cities in the Kyoto region, renowned worldwide for its green tea cultivation and home to the Byodo-in Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose image appears on Japan's ten-yen coin, as well as strong literary associations with the closing chapters of The Tale of Genji. Golfers at Uji Country Club can easily combine their round with a visit to the city's tea houses and historic temple grounds, making it a genuinely well-rounded day trip destination beyond the golf course itself. The city also hosts Kasatori Golf Center and Nissin Miyako Country Club within its boundaries, giving Uji a real concentration of golf options tied to one of Kansai's most storied historic towns. Golfers looking to pair golf with Uji's tea culture and temple heritage through CoGolfers can consider Uji Country Club, and the community is a good place to find others planning a similar cultural and golfing day trip.
