Panorama TOKYO : Ueno Zoo  

I visited Ueno Zoo, the oldest zoo in Japan, for the first time in a long time. That is located in the vast Ueno Park which has a lot of museums and temples. They say a person visits zoo at least three times in all one's life. The first time with parents in one's childfood; the second time with one's lover or good friends in one's youth; and the third time with one's child in breeding days. There are no popular places except zoo, where the people of various generations enjoy together.

When my camera got near to the cage of flamingos, the fence was out of focus. Spectators space melts into their world as if it were in wonderland of the exceptional dimensions; the picture shows.
