Ueno Park is an oasis in the midst of a bustling city. Located just outside the subway station, the park is a restful place to commune with nature. Trees, plants and shrubs well landscaped surrounding, one can breathe and have the space to just be silent. An attraction of course is the zoo where you can see amazing creatures and... More

This is a great park to get out of the busy rithm of Tokyo, there are shrines and temples inside and a rose garden thats worth a visit. If you want to meet the pandas you can also go to the Zoo. More

We went in April right in the peek of the cherry blossoms season and the atmosphere in the park was awesome, people having picnics and a good time. Plenty of street food and drink to be consumed as well. More

We visited in mid April just after the peak of Cherry blossoms. It was lovely to see so many friends and family gathering to celebrate. We ventured toward the Temple in the park but it is under construction right now. The zoo also looked great, but we ran out of time to go there as we were headed to the... More

Great in April (when we went) as you can see the cherry blossoms being enjoyed by the locals and very close to the Zoo and museums. It also has a quaint, older theme park with rides for the under 10s. More

I enjoyed the walk in the park around the cherry blossom tree lined paths which are visually stunning,this is a very popular event in April judging by the huge numbers of people doing this, picnicing and partying under the trees. The park lake is also very pleasant to walk around and is well stocked with koi carp regularly coming to... More

It's a nice park inside the cities. Good for jogging and walking. Good for people who wants to experience cool shades of sakura trees. You can find the museums nearby. More
