The Yanaka Metropolitan Cemetry [map A]
3 minutes from the south exit
of JR Nippori
station.
Although the signs on the platform
show that
the north exit is closer to the
Cemetry,
the south exit is recommendable
for strangers
because it's much easier to find
the Cemetry
entrance. The Momiji-zaka slope
is the way
you should take to reach the
entrance.
"Momiji" means maple (trees) in
Japanese. |
We went on a close visit to Yanaka,
a place located near the Ueno Park. Although
Yanaka is a town of a lot of temples and
cemetries, it has a light and casual, evenacademic
atmosphere・・・a nice place to walk around.
We picked out several Japanesesweets shops
in Yanaka to introduce to you here.
I like this town so deeply that I composed
a song of Yanaka, please listen ("CLICK"!!)・・・of course FREE !.
