What makes Ueno Park a worthwhile visit is not just the well-maintained greenery, or the cafes where you can stop by for a refreshing drink; it’s the park's very location that includes some of Tokyo’s hottest tourist spots. Inside the park lies the famous Ueno Zoo, several of Japan’s finest museums, and also some cultural sights. On a cool summer day, the view of the lake filled with lily pads is one that you will not forget, so if you visit Ueno, be sure to take a stroll around the park!
