Ueno Toshogu Peony Garden
Ueno Tosho-gu is a Tosho-gu Shinto shrine located in the Taito ward of Tokyo, Japan. First established in 1627 by Todo Takatora and renovated in 1651 by Tokugawa Iemitsu, the shrine remains mostly intact since that time, making it a great example of Shinto architecture in the Edo period. Several of those surviving structures have been designated Important Cultural Properties.
