	Ueno Park, Japan. Travel guide & tourist information by Hostelbookers.com
		Ueno Park was designed by the Meiji government primarily as a place for self-improvement – Tokyo's first national exhibition was held here in 1877, quickly followed by its first zoo and museum – rather than somewhere to relax in the open air.
		According to local tradition, saplings were brought here from the famous cherries of Yoshino near Kyoto and there are now said to be 1200 in Ueno, but, with an annual crowd of over one million, that's still eight hundred people per tree.
		From Ueno Station there are two routes into the park: "Park Exit" takes you to the main, west gate where you'll also find an information desk (Tues–Sun 9am–5pm); while the "Shinobazu Exit" brings you out closer to the southern entrance, above Keisei-Ueno Station, where trains depart for Narita Airport.
