Ueno Zoo has three entrances and exits, namely the main entrance, Bentenmon gate and Ikenohatamon gate. There are different transportation methods to get there, and most people choose the "main gate" as the main entrance.

The east park is mainly about birds 🦩🦜🦅🦤, and the owl 🦉 panda 🐼 is also here. In the West Garden, there are cute penguins and seals. Other large land animals can be seen here.

#JapanTravel #YakitoriUenoBunraku 📌Yakitori UenoBunraku 🏷️Yakitori specialty store, bar 📍6 Chome-12-1 Ueno, Taito City, Tokyo 110-0005 Japan This is a restaurant that appeared in Baek Jong-won's Street Fighter Japan Tokyo edition. It's a place that Baek Jong-won often visits, where you can taste yakitori, highballs, and draft beer at a reasonable price. There are various types of skewers, and the taste changes depending on whether you eat it with salt grilling or soy sauce seasoning. If you don't like salty food, I recommend salt grilling! (The soy sauce seasoning sauce was saltier than I thought, so salt grilling felt better!) It is operated on two floors, but the second floor is narrow. You have to go up steep stairs, and the interior is narrow and noisy, so if possible, I recommend telling them that you want to eat on the first floor and spending time on the lower floor. (You have to tell them that you want to eat on the first floor)

Ueno located the downtown compound of Tokyo. This pond is closed to the Tokyo University. Koi fishes, lotus blooming, walking along the pond with a fresh air are the famous spot of Ueno pond. We can also ride a swarm boat with the leg movement paddle on the pond. The popular Ueno zoo is very closed with the pond. If you’re panda lovers, Ueno zoo is must visit list. #Ueno #japan

#TokyoTravel 📍Location: 8-22 Uenokoen, Taito City, Tokyo 110-0007 Japan ✔️Starbucks Ueno Park, located inside Ueno Park, is the perfect place to stop by when you get tired of looking around the park! ✔️Unfortunately, the exterior of Ueno Park Starbucks is currently being remodeled, so you can't sit outside!🥲 However, after the renovation, you will be able to sit outside and enjoy a cup of coffee while looking out at the park! ✔️At Starbucks Japan, I recommend the limited menu that you can only drink in Japan! In particular, the matcha latte is very strong and really delicious🍵 #Japan #JapanTravel #JapanStarbucks

I visited my first ever standing whiskey bar in Ameyoko which is located in Ueno, a part of Tokyo Japan. Ameyoko is a busy market street along the Yamanote Line tracks between Okachimachi and Ueno stations. The name "Ameyoko" is a short form for "Ameya Yokocho" (candy store alley), as candies were traditionally sold there. Alternatively, "Ame" also stands for "America", because a lot of American products used to be available when the street was the site of a black market in the years following World War 2. #tokyo #japan #fallingforfall #ueno

Ueno Park is a public park next to Ueno Station in central Tokyo.

At the end of April, I came to Tokyo with a one-year-old chick. I couldnt catch the cherry blossoms in Ueno, but I saw a colorful blush in front of the alleys in Nakano. Tokyo's big, some people use the boundless to describe. Modern architecture is as fascinating as the traditional old Edo house, and Tokyos sensory stimuli make travellers excited. You can visit an inspiring shrine to see creative architecture or squander in the duty-free shopping street. Its best to experience a local homestay and make a dinner in the Windy Villa to live like a local. Tokyo, in the midst of bustling modernity, there are always some wonderful experiences of traditional culture.

**Magurobito** is a well-known standing sushi bar located in the Ueno area of Tokyo, near Okachimachi Station. The shop is quite small, accommodating only about 7-8 customers, with no seating available. Customers enjoy fresh sushi while standing. The menu is available in English, allowing customers to choose sushi according to their preferences. The sushi here is very fresh, with large, firm slices of fish that are incredibly delicious and reasonably priced. This is a great place to experience authentic Japanese sushi culture. The shop is open daily from 11:30 AM to 10:00 PM, with the last order at 9:40 PM. Due to the limited space, there may be a wait, so it is recommended to visit during less busy times for the best dining experience.

| Ueno Park and Zoo. In the heart of the bustling city of Tokyo, Ueno Park is like an ancient and dazzling pearl, embedded among the high-rise buildings and busy streets, telling a moving story of history and nature intertwined. Stepping into the park, the hustle and bustle is isolated by an invisible barrier, and time seems to slow down. In the park, towering ancient trees stand like faithful guardians of time, witnessing countless sunrises and sunsets, carrying the memories of generations of Tokyoites. In spring, cherry blossoms fall like snow, covering the ground with a dreamy pink carpet. Laughter fills the air as people enjoy the beauty of nature during this short but brilliant flowering season. In autumn, the maple leaves burn like fire, igniting the entire park. Walking among them, the fallen leaves rustle underfoot, as if playing a symphony of autumn. Following the winding paths, you will reach the famous Ueno Zoo. This is a happy home for animals and a window for humans to have an intimate dialogue with nature. Stepping into the zoo is like stepping into a wonderful otherworld. The adorable giant pandas always stroll leisurely in the park or feast on bamboo. Their round and chubby appearance melts the hearts of every visitor. The majestic lions stroll leisurely in their exclusive territory, occasionally letting out a low roar, demonstrating the majesty of the king of beasts. The giraffes gracefully stretch their necks to eat the leaves from high places. Their slender bodies and gentle eyes make people marvel at the wonders of nature. In Monkey Mountain, the clever monkeys jump up and down, chasing and playing with each other. Their lively and active nature adds endless vitality to the entire zoo. Ueno Park and Zoo are a perfect blend of nature and culture. Here, people can relax in the embrace of nature and feel the wonder of the changing seasons. They can also get close to the animals and appreciate the diversity and beauty of life. They are the soul of Tokyo and an unforgettable memory in the hearts of every visitor.

I I recently spent three days in Ueno, Tokyo, and it turned out to be an incredibly memorable experience. The area has a charming local vibe that makes it feel both authentic and welcoming. It’s a perfect blend of tradition and modernity, offering a glimpse into everyday Japanese life while still being lively and engaging for visitors. One of the things I appreciated most about Ueno was its relaxed atmosphere compared to some of Tokyo’s busier districts. Despite this, it’s conveniently located, making it easy to access other famous spots like Asakusa, Akihabara, and Shibuya within a short train ride. This balance between tranquility and accessibility made it an ideal base for exploring the city. Ueno Park, in particular, stood out as a highlight of my stay. It’s not just a beautiful green space but also home to cultural gems like museums, art galleries, and even a zoo. Strolling through the park, especially during cherry blossom season, feels magical. The Ameya-Yokocho market nearby adds to the charm, offering vibrant shopping streets filled with food stalls, clothing shops, and souvenirs. Overall, Ueno provided a refreshing and down-to-earth experience that I highly recommend to anyone visiting Tokyo. It’s a place where you can enjoy a slower pace while still being close to the action, making it perfect for travelers who want to see the city without feeling overwhelmed. #ญี่ปุ่น #อูเอโนะ #โตเกียว
