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.
A nice early afternoon visit to see some early blooming cherry blossoms. The park is already set up with vendors for food and drink, and also a few people with stalls selling antiques and miscellaneous wares and goods.
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.
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.
Ueno Park during cherry blossom season is truly magical! The pink and white canopy created by the sakura trees is breathtaking. Its festive atmosphere are well worth it. A must-see in Tokyo!
