A designated notable ginkgo in Uji—striking in autumn when the canopy turns vivid gold. Photograph full-canopy shots, close-up of fan-shaped leaves and leaf-strewn paths. Best from late November to early December at sunrise or late afternoon for warm side light; weekday mornings after rain give saturated color and fewer visitors. Easily reachable from Shinden Station; free access but respect private/shrine grounds and nearby homes. Limited parking—use public transit.
