The main attraction at the Byodoin Temple is the Phoenix Hall for which an additional admission fee is charged. The tickets are sold for a certain visitation time that lasts for half an hour as they control the amount of people that going in. The place is not difficult to find when you come out of Uji station (either JR Nara line or Keihan line) to make your way to Byodoin Temple. There are clear signs pointing the way. Just try not to get distracted by the many shops along the way. #givethanks
