なぜ日本茶や抹茶は他のどこでもなく宇治で誕生したのか？宇治の地理・歴史・文化を徹底深掘り旅【地歴文化の旅 宇治編】

Overview Why did the tea brought to Japan from the continent by Eisai, the "Father of Tea," develop into a uniquely Japanese culture? To uncover the answer, I visited Uji to deeply explore its geography, history, and culture firsthand. About Me I’m a man in my 20s with a passion for learning about geography, history, and culture in Japan and around the world. Currently, I live overseas for work, but I frequently return to Japan for my travels. I create videos documenting my journeys as I research and study in my own way. Since I am not an expert in this field, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or feedback.
