Tokyo offers many activities and sightseeing spots. You have
to be precise to enjoy the maximum of your time. That was my plan when my friend came to
visit.
I choose to visit area by area so that I wouldn’t lose much
time on trains or so.
This is for Ueno area.
We started from 9.30 am. At Ueno Station, Ueno park exit.
Ueno station is a very central place that you can easily
access from many lines.
Such as Yamanote line, Ginza line, Keihin Tohoku line,
Tohoku line and even Shinkansen(the famous fast bullet train)….
The program is simple:
9.30 Ueno Zoo
Pandas are waiting
to salute you.
Every adult enjoys
the diversity of animals and also there is a special area for kids to feed some
animals.
For lunch, I would suggest you to buy a bento box and eat it
in Ueno Park with a peaceful view.
Afternoon is for Tokyo National Museum.
It is such a profound
museum that you can observe Japanese History and culture with many unique
items. And, the museum shop offers many things that you can buy as a gift for
yourself or others.
The museum is closed at 5 pm which is perfect timing to walk
around Ueno Koen and Toshogu Shrine…
Around dinner time I think you will feel a little tired but
happy. It is an all-day plan full of Japan and I guarantee that it will be remarkable.
You could always continue the fun after the
night falls…
Cheers,
