Yoyogi-Koen Station platform on the Chiyoda Line subway has a nice leafy motif. This is the nearest station to Yoyogi Park.

Yoyogi Park is one of the more popular parks for hanami flower-viewing picnics in late March-early April in Tokyo.
|
|
It's crowded under them trees, and pretty noisy.

What impressed me the most about Yoyogi Park was not the cherry blossoms. It was the long lines of people waiting outside these log cabins.
|
|
Are they standing in line to buy tickets for an outdoor rock concert in the park?
|
|
No, they are standing in line to use the public toilets. Funny thing was the men's line was just as long as the women's line. But I'm sure the men's line progressed faster. It must've taken an hour to get to the toilet.
|
|
So before you do all that drinking, think about the toilet lines.
