Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden is a large park located in the city center, featuring Japanese and French garden landscapes.

Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden was originally a tranquil Japanese garden, and a French garden was later built. The park features lush forests, beautiful views, and 1,500 cherry trees, attracting a large number of visitors to enjoy the cherry blossoms in spring.

The birth of Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden can be traced back to Meiji 39 (1906), located on the former site of the residence of the Naito family, lords of Takato Domain in Shinshu during the Edo period. Originally built as an imperial garden, it became a national park after the war and is beloved by many. The park covers an area of 58.3 hectares, with a perimeter of 3.5 kilometers, and features unique garden views such as beautiful plane tree avenues.

Tokyo City View is an observation deck located on the 52nd floor of the Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, 250 meters above sea level.

The gallery space also hosts exhibitions and events that blend seamlessly with the stunning views. On the same floor, you can relax at the café & restaurant or shop while taking in the breathtaking scenery.

Ueno Park is one of the largest parks in Tokyo. With its many facilities, you can stroll around to soak in the natural beauty and cultural charm, or spend an entire day exploring its art and culture. Every spring, the park transforms into a sea of cherry blossoms, attracting visitors from far and wide.

A prime spot for cherry blossom viewing

This is a famous cherry blossom viewing spot in Tokyo. The park currently has over 1,000 cherry trees, with the "Somei Yoshino" variety, discovered right here in Ueno Park, being particularly iconic. When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, Ueno Park becomes one of the most popular spots for locals to enjoy the flowers. The cherry blossom avenue is a must-visit spot; when the wind blows, the falling petals create a spectacular "rain" of blossoms—this is the very place that inspired Lu Xun's famous line about the cherry blossoms in Ueno. The "Cherry Blossom Festival" is held annually during this time, and at dusk, the park lights up, illuminating the blossoms for a truly enchanting experience.

Shinobazu Pond

If you miss the "Cherry Blossom Festival," don't miss Shinobazu Pond in the southwest of the park. In summer, the melodious music from the outdoor concert hall complements the lotus flowers in the pond, while black swans, wild geese, and mandarin ducks swim gracefully on the water, making for a delightful scene. You can also visit the 4-story aquarium by Shinobazu Pond to see nearly 600 species of aquatic animals.

Ueno Zoological Gardens

In the northwest of the park lies Ueno Zoological Gardens, home to approx. 500 species of rare birds and animals. The zoo is divided into East and West Gardens. The East Garden is very popular, featuring two giant pandas from China, "Ri Ri" and "Shin Shin." The West Garden includes a petting zoo with small animals like pygmy goats and ostriches. The Peony Garden next to the zoo is a memorial garden established in 1980 to commemorate friendship between China and Japan. The "Lion Head" peonies here are particularly vibrant and worth seeing. In winter, you can also see winter peonies blooming within protective enclosures—a rare sight that can only be found here in Tokyo.

Historical sites

Beyond the stunning natural scenery, the park is home to many historical sites worth visiting. The bronze statues scattered throughout the park are a major feature. Additionally, the park contains historical sites such as Ueno Toshogu Shrine, Kan'ei-ji, the Tokugawa Mausoleum, and Kiyomizu Kannon-dō Temple, earning it the reputation as a "treasure trove of historical sites and cultural assets." Be sure to check out the Toshogu Shrine, a masterpiece of classical Japanese architecture, where the 6m-tall "Ghost Lantern" is a true highlight. It also houses many important cultural artifacts.

Museums and art galleries

Another major feature of Ueno Park is its abundance of cultural and art venues. One of these, the Hyokeikan, is a representative example of Western-style architecture from the late Meiji period and is a treasure in its own right. The National Museum of Western Art houses many masterpieces by renowned artists. The Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum exhibits masterpieces such as traditional Japanese ukiyo-e and oil paintings. There are also the National Museum of Nature and Science, Tokyo Metropolitan Festival Hall, The Ueno Royal Museum, and the Shitamachi Museum, which is why Ueno Park is often called a "forest of culture."
