Japanese Fish Ponds by AKtravelers
One of my favorite things about Tokyo is its many secluded Japanese fish ponds, which bring peace and nature to the urban madness. Designed with the traditional aesthetic, these pondsare intended to bring calm to one's soul, and they do. Importantly, they are all populated by monstrous koi who follow you as you walk around the pond, hoping for a handout. This always makes me feel welcome.You can find ponds like this scattered throughout Tokyo. There is one behiod the National Museum in Ueno Park and this one is at the Yasukuni Shrine.
