Ueno Park

上野公園

Tokyo · Kanto

Ueno Park is a large public park in Tokyo and the city's densest concentration of museums, including the Tokyo National Museum, plus a zoo and Shinobazu Pond. Broad walking paths make it a serene escape from the surrounding city. It is also one of Tokyo's best-known cherry blossom grounds when the trees flower in late March and early April.

Why we picked it

Many travelers focus on more commercial attractions in Tokyo and overlook this cultural oasis.
