The last park I will mention is the most famous for Cherry Blossom trees in Tokyo. It has the most trees, the biggest crowds, and the most vendors. It is located a few blocks from the Ueno subway station in the northeastern part of Tokyo. One of the biggest reasons why this park is so busy is because the trees drape over a long walking path giving the cherry blossoms the appearance of clouds just out of your reach, that, and it is free. If I had to wager a guess at how many people walked through it in a day
(during the cherry blossom season) it would be in the 100,000s. It is packed all day, with tons of people picnicking and endless lines of people looking at the trees. Despite the huge crowds it is actually very clean and pretty quiet (depending on what time of day, the picnickers get increasingly drunk later in the day, but they still tend to be much more behaved than one would expect in the US). If you are looking to see lots of Cherry Blossom trees packed next to each other for optimal viewing this is your best destination choice.
