Home to over one thousand cherry trees, Tokyo’s Ueno Park transforms into a sea of pink blossoms in late March and early April. The Ueno Cherry Blossom Festival is one of the biggest and most crowded in all of Japan.

Located on the Yamanote Line, Ueno Park is easily accessible from anywhere in Tokyo. Ueno Station is four stops from Tokyo Station .
Look for the Park Exit at Ueno Station. The exit takes you directly to the side entrance of Ueno Park.

Main Street, about half a kilometer long, runs from the main entrance of Ueno Park past most of the museums and the zoo. It also hosts more than half of the park’s 1,000-plus cherry trees. During cherry blossom viewing season, Main Street is packed with nearly two million people coming to bask in the beauty of the sakura.
