Ueno Ueno Park is the cultural center of Tokyo. It houses important temples and shrines as well as cultural institutions and museums. Ueno attracts different kinds of people: people from the countryside visiting Tokyo, children on school excursions (it's perfect for that!) shoppers looking for good price deals in Ameyoko, foreigners (some of whom are illegal aliens) as well as homeless. The best time to visist is, without any doubt, April when all of the cherry trees are in blossom. Ueno is best reached by the JR Yamamoto line to Uneo Station. Use the park exit on the west side.
