The 2nd day, Exploration Tokyo “Mt.Fuji and Disney for 4 days with budget Rp.8jt an”

At 07.00 each of us moved from the hotel to the Intersection point at Asakusa station. Our first Bucket list today is Ueno Park. A city park in Tokyo is the most famous. Quite spacious and close to many other attractions (The National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo University of The Art, Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, Tokyo Metropolitan Festival Hall, etc.).

With our train to Euno Park. Not so far the distance we have to go from Asakusa Station. It only takes ± 30 minutes with a train Ueno Station majors. Usually in spring Ueno Park becomes one of the most crowded places in Tokyo. Because here will be the center of beautiful scenery. Where Sakura flowers bloom in all corners of the park. The sight of pink and white blushes very pamper the eyes.

But because when we come in August there are no more Sakura flowers left, because the cherry blossoms can bloom at a temperature of 12⁰ - 16⁰ C. Which usually occurs at the end of March to early May in each year. Nevertheless the beautiful garden atmosphere keeps us satisfied around.

UENO Park

There are 2 temples there, a lake with a beautiful wooden bridge, a boat neatly lined by the lake and a lake full of lotuses. Beautiful, comfortable and fun to get around here.

In the middle of the park there are also many cafés like starbucks, ice cream sellers, etc. Some people choose to cycle around the park. And last year many locations where hundreds of people gathered at a busy point with the search pokemon-go.
