On Friday, we headed to Ueno Park in the morning, which is kind of similar to the National Mall in Washington DC. They have a zoo and museums and public park areas. We walked around and saw several shrines and a pagoda.
Here are some of the buildings in the Tokyo National Museum complex. We saw many collections, from both Japan and also other Asian cultures.
On our last morning in Japan, we had a few hours before having to leave for the airport, so we went to the Imperial Palace (which had been closed the day before).
The actual palace is inaccessible to the public, but the gardens and grounds are open and are beautiful.
