Asakusa/Ueno

Asakusa and Ueno have been popular among tourists from home and abroad as the place with anostalgic downtown atmosphere. The accessibility from the nearby stations to Asakusa orUeno is good and temples, parks, souvenir shops and restaurants attract tourists fromforeign countries.

Ueno

Ueno is known as the gateway to Tokyo fromnorthern Japan. It used to be the precinctof Kan-eiji Temple which was the TokugawaShogun’s family temple in the Edo Period.The center of this area is Ueno Park withvarious cultural facilities such as zoos,museums, galleries and so on in a naturalenvironment. The park is also popular forcherry blossom viewing in spring.

Ameyoko shopping district developed fromblack markets after the Second World Warsits along the railroad underpass between JRUeno Station and Okachimachi Station.Various items from cosmetics to fresh foodcan be purchased at reasonable prices here.

72 / 223

Roads in the Ueno area are paved, wide and flat. Tourist spots in this area are close tostations and convenient for visitors. But there are some slopes and stairs which are notaccessible for wheelchair users and worth checking the routes in advance.


Accessibility at Ueno StationThe layered structure of JR Ueno Station may appear complicated as it has the Shinkansenplatforms together with local lines. However, local line platforms for metropolitan areasare mostly on the same floor and the information maps are easy to understand.It isconvenient to use the Park Exit with a slope to visit Ueno Park. There are not manyelevators going down to the central gate on the 1st floor (firstly, going up to the 3rdfloor by nearby elevators from the local line platforms, then use the elevator near IriyaGate to the 1st floor), but Hirokoji Exit or Shinobazu Exit on the 1st floor are convenientfor Ameyoko area access as those exits have slopes.

Asakusa

With Senso-ji Temple as its center, Asakusa has been developing as a busy district from theEdo Period. The area still preserves the atmosphere of the old Edo Period and you can feelthe traditional Japanese culture making it a popular spot for tourists from home andabroad. Nakamise, a souvenir shopping street is also bustling with tourists.During spring cherry blossom season, special boat cruises (assistance for wheelchair usersavailable) along Sumidagawa River are available and Sumida Park is known as the place ofbeautiful cherry blossoms.Tokyo Sky Tree seen from Asakusa and unique buildings such as the head office of AsahiBreweries, Ltd. are attractive photographic subjects. The tourist information center infront of Kaminari-mon Gate of Senso-ji Temple provides information and maps. Various kindsof festivals are held year-round, such as Sanja-Matsuri in the middle of May, SumidagawaRiver Firework Festival and Chinese Lantern Plant Market in July.Roads are paved, wide and flat, there is no problem for wheelchair users.

73 / 223


Accessibility at Asakusa StationAsakusa Station of the Toei Asakusa Line is the most convenient station for wheelchairusers with elevators to the ground level being equipped. However, practically speaking manytourists use the Ginza Line of Tokyo Metro. The Ginza Line has the elevator to the groundlevel only on platform 2. Wheelchair users can get information about the arrival platformof Asakusa Station at the boarding station, and there is an announcement about the arrivalplatform at Tawaramachi Station which is one stop before Asakusa station.These pointsshould be noted because the Ginza Line is closer to Senso-ji Temple and the central part ofthis area.

Yokohama

The streets of central Yokohama, from Yokohama station through Kanagawa prefecturalgovernment to Yamashita Park are flat and well-planned so that wheelchairs can move easily.This area was reclaimed in the period from the later part of the 17th century to the 19thcentury.

The arrival of the American Navy toYokohama about 160 years ago triggered thecity's opening of its port to foreign ships.

Foreign settlements were established wherecurrently Chinatown exists today.

Early facilities of the Yokohama port wereinsufficient and they became unable tohandle bigger ships. Those facilities wererenewed to build tourist facilities such asmuseums related to the port, trade, andships which form one of Yokohama's specialfeatures.
