Visit Report: Ueno Onshi Park
Ueno Park has the distinction of being Japan's first public park, opening in 1876 (Meiji 9).
The park is characterized by its many cultural facilities including museums, art galleries, a zoo, and an arts university, making it a popular date destination.
While bustling with crowds during the day, the number of visitors drops in the evening, making it perfect for nighttime strolls.
The park is also famous for cherry blossoms, with illuminated nighttime cherry blossom viewing held annually.
Alongside Hirosaki Park (Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture) and Takada Park (Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture), it's considered one of Japan's three greatest nighttime cherry blossom spots, offering truly beautiful sakura scenery.
Why not visit and experience it for yourself?
