Amongst the country's first public parks, it was founded following the western example as part of the borrowing and assimilation of international practices that characterizes the early Meiji period. The home of a number of major museums, Ueno Park is also celebrated in spring for its cherry blossoms and "hanami". In recent times the park and its attractions have drawn over ten million visitors a year, making it Japan's most popular city park.
