Ueno may be best known for being home to Japan’s oldest zoo, the Ameyoko shopping street, and one of Tokyo’s most popular hanami spots: Ueno Park. But did you know that, beyond the bustling streets and lively crowds, this area has a serene and quiet side?
Step inside a 280-year-old teahouse in Ueno’s National Museum, where time seems to have stopped and traditional Japanese culture awaits. Join byFood host Stephanie as she explores a historic shrine, gets dressed in a silk kimono, enjoys a gourmet kaiseki lunch, and participates in a traditional tea ceremony. Beyond tourist attractions, there's much more to Ueno than first meets the eye, with a whole world of culture and tranquillity to discover.
The best part? You can book this traditional Ueno tea ceremony and dining experience for your next Tokyo trip!
