Massive…this is how we could best describe the sheer size (534,000m2) and the many attractions to be found in this park. Established in 1873, Ueno Park is among Japan’s first public parks and home of some major museums like the Tokyo National Museum, National Science Museum, Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, National Museum of Western Art, Shitamachi Museum, several temples and even a zoo!
It would be impossible to cover all aspects of this park in a single day, so we decided to divide our attention on the cultural aspects of this park and its temples with the following:
– Kiyomizu Kannon Temple (Part 1)
– Hanazono inari Temple (Part 1)
– Gojoten Temple (Part 1)
– Toshogu Shrine (Part 2)
– Ueno Park Pagoda (Part 2)
– Bentendo Temple and the Shinobazu Pond (Part 2)
While these temples and places are on the Ueno Park “Must See” list, we would also recommend visiting:
– Kaneiji Temple
– Ueno Daibutsu
Kiyomizu Kannon Temple:
Originally built in 1631 and part of the Kaneji temple, the Kiyomizu Kannon Temple get it’s design and architecture from the famous Kiyomizu-dera temple in Kyoto and is also home to an image of Kosodate Kannon (Goddess of child-rearing) and a figure of Senju Kannon (Thousand Armed Goddess of Mercy).
Gojoten and Hanazono inari Temple:
A few meters away from the Kiyomizu Kannon you will find both the Gojoten and Hanazono inari Temples, the Fox Temple. Both temples are actually close to each other and can be mistaken for the one and only place of worship.
The Gotojen temple is dedicated to the Scholar and poet Sugawara no Michizane (August 1, 845 – March 26, 903) and located close to the Shinobazu Pond, while the Hanazono inari Temple is dedicated to the Inari Okami, or spirit of the foxes, and can be accessed by a gorgeous series of Japanese Torii.

“Imposant”… est le meilleur descriptif que nous ayons trouvé pour cet espace de 534 000m2 et des multiples attractions que propose ce parc. Construit en 1873, le parc Ueno abrite le plus célèbre jardin public du Japon, et quelques-uns de ses musées principaux comme le Tokyo National Museum, le National Science Museum, le Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, le National Museum of Western Art, et le Shitamachi Museum. Nous y trouverons aussi une multitude de temples, et un zoo.
Une seule journée est loin d’être suffisante pour notre reportage. C’est pourquoi nous vous proposons une visite des aspects culturels de ce parc et de ses temples en deux parties.
En première partie :
– Le temple Kiyomizu Kannon
– Le temple Hanazono Inari
– Le temple Gojoten
Rendez-vous ensuite dans notre deuxième video pour la seconde partie :
– Le sanctuairel Toshogu
– La pagode du parc Ueno
– Le temple Bentendo et l’étang Shinobazu
Veuillez aussi ajouter dans votre carnet de voyage le temple Kaneji et le Ueno Daibutsu car ils portent la mention “à voir absolument !!!”.
Le temple Kiyomizu Kannon : A quelques mètres du Kiyomizu Kannon, vous trouverez les temples Gojoten et Hanazono inari, ainsi que le “temple du renard”. Attention car tous les temples sont à proximités les uns des autres et peuvent ainsi etre confondus.
Le temple Gotojen est dedié a l’érudit et poête Sugawara no Michizane (1er Aout 845 – 26 Mars 903) et est situé près de l’étang Shinobazu, tandis que le temple Hanazono inari se réfère à l’Inari Okami (ou l’esprit des renards), et dont l’accès vous fera traverser une magnifique série de Torii.
