Uji Obaku Plaza is a facility built for academic interaction, student support, promotion of industry-academia collaboration, and cooperation with local community of Kyoto University, with a goal of contribution to society, through development of education, research and academic culture.

It has one big hall with 300 chairs and six rooms of various sizes. We look forward to having your use for international conferences, lectures, academic meetings, study group workings, workshops, and also recitals and club activities of both inside and outside Kyoto University.

The Plaza has a great access from Kyoto Station, only a 30-minute train ride of JR Nara Line. Uji city, where it is located, is well-known by two World Heritages – Byodoin Temple and Ujigami Shrine. The city is also famous for its cultural properties such as Manpuku-ji Temple, and local specialty like Uji green tea.
