Day 9 - Roppongi, Ueno

today is the sakura full bloom day, i decided to visited the famous Ueno park in late afternoon so we can view the sakura in the day and night. 
So we headed to roppongi for some photography... roppongi is famous for clubbing anf foreigners.. but did you know that it's also a famous art district?

when we headed out of the station... what welcome us was a field of paper cut flower... 
so beautiful~!!!!!!!!
FYI, its drizzling .... so we felt it's a pity... as the paper got wet~ 
we headed wayyy down and spotted a garden with very designer scrupltures

pretty 4-sided slide

swings
later we found out we are behind ritz carlton residence... so probably this is their playgrd~ and phillipe stark is the designer~ !!!

walked around more to find more art piece~ 



can see tokyo tower here too.. 


pretty sakuras bloom at their max today~! I can feel the excitement before going Ueno
