Tokyo Attractions｜Ueno Park

#Tokyo Attractions The central road of Ueno Park is famous throughout the country for its gorgeous cherry blossom trees. Since ancient times, this place has been a popular spot for cherry blossom viewing. Even the haiku poet Matsuo Basho was fascinated by it and left many works praising it. Every year from late March to early April, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, hundreds of thousands of tourists flock to enjoy the magnificent view of more than 800 Somei Yoshino cherry trees. In addition to appreciating the beauty of cherry blossoms, visitors can also participate in a variety of activities such as the Aozora Antique Market. During the Cherry Blossom Festival, 1,000 candle lamps will be hung in the park to create a romantic atmosphere for viewing cherry blossoms at night. 📍Address: 5-20 Ueno Park, Taito District, Tokyo 🚇 Public transportation: "Ueno" or "Keisei Ueno" station 🕒Opening hours: Park 5:00-23:00, most venues and facilities 9:00-17:00 🎫Tickets: Free admission to the park
