I really enjoyed walking around here, and although it’s still winter, some sakura trees are starting to bloom, giving the park an added beauty during this cold weather.
I don’t know why some rated this park lower, but any park in Japan is still better than 80 to 90 percent, probably, of all parks globally. So I’m actually jealous of everyone who can enjoy those Japanese green spaces.
This park is so big! It has many interesting places to see inside and around it, so I think one can spend the whole day here if you like museums, shrines or doing some birdwatching. In autumn it was empty, but it must be very crowded when the sakura blooms.
One of the biggest parks in Tokyo with temples, pagodas, statues, a zoo and lakes. One of the lakes is fully covered by water lilies which is very brsutiful to see and the other one has kind of boats to row through it.
Very nice to have a peaceful walk in such a moving city.
Ueno Park is one of the largest and most popular parks in Tokyo. There is the Tokyo Museum and Zoo located near the temple. Because the place is huge, it is not too crowded. There are buskers and street performers around. Managed to catch some kids playing baseball in the baseball court. Worth visiting for a quick stroll and to do some people watching.
this is definitely a nice part to go to and spend the whole day. You get rent duck and pedal across the pond for ¥1000.
There is also zoo and several shrines in the park that are very nice to see.
