Notes
Shinobazu’s three main ponds – the Cormorant, Boat, and Lotus Ponds – are each named after their individual features. During the summer, the Lotus Pond is almost completely covered in lotus flowers, including a few species found nowhere else in Japan. The Boat Pond has boat rentals for those wanting a relaxing ride, while the Cormorant Pond is home to hundreds of birds, among them its namesake and species from the nearby Ueno Park Zoo.
