Source-derived summary

This list is of the Cultural Properties of Japan located within the city of Uji in Kyōto Prefecture.

Statistics

As of 20 April 2012, 145 Properties have been designated (including nine *National Treasures) and a further 4 Properties registered. Since a single designation or registration may include more than one item, the total number of assets protected and promoted in accordance with the Law for the Protection of Cultural Properties (1950) exceeds the sum of designations and registrations.

† National Treasures (denoted with an asterisk, smaller text, and brackets) are included within the count of Important Cultural Properties; Monuments designated in more than one class (denoted with brackets) are counted once.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “wikimedia list article” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 5, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6568159. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2012 and 1950.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
