Tokyo National Museum

Divya visited the Tokyo National Museum, which is situated within Ueno Park. On her way, she noticed that while the sakura trees had blossomed more than our previous visit, it was still nowhere close to full bloom. The park was still very crowded though. She spent around three hours in the museum, which had art from across East Asia, with entire sections on Japanese history and the spread of Buddhism in Asia. She met us later for dinner and told us how impressed she was by the museum. Meanwhile, Nishu and Purva left to catch their flight back to the US. We sent them off and I started looking for an Indian place for our last meal with Dad and Mom on this Japan trip, before they caught their flights to India the next morning.Read more
