Due to this history, there are still several privately run shops remaining in large urban parks, such as Tokyo Metropolitan Parks.
Located in Ueno Park, next to the Toshogu Shrine's torii gate, Toshogu Shrine Daiichi Shop is a precious establishment that was founded in 1953. Many people will have fond memories of stopping by on their way home from the zoo.
It's a heavenly space where time stands still, where adults can take a break with a beer or oden while watching the relaxing scenery of the park with families coming and going.
