Historic
Neighbourhoods of Tokyo I Ueno
Ueno is located in a district in the
north of central Tokyo. Ueno is well known for many cultural and historical
places, for example the Ueno Park and Zoo.
From historic buildings associated with a family
temple from the Edo era, to cultural facilities like the National Museum,
there are many worthwhile sightseeing attractions in Ueno. If you are interested
in Japanese traditional culture and the older neighbourhoods of Tokyo,
Ueno is a great place to visit.
Since the city of Tokyo is a constant state of rebuilding,
older, historic buildings are disappearing little by little. Fortunately,
in Ueno, the area still retains an old historic charm filled with
old buildings and a lively atmosphere of the easy living lifestyle of old Tokyo.
Generally, most of the sightseeing attractions are located in Ueno Park. So,
if you come to Ueno by JR train, it is recommended to start your trip from the Ueno
Kouen Exit (Park Exit) of JR Ueno Station. You can reach most places
and facilities in Ueno Park within a 10 minute walk!
