Many people think of Ueno Park in Tokyo, where the bronze statue of Saigo Takamori stands. However, there is also an Ueno Park in Iga City.
This park is home to Iga Ueno Castle and a ninja house, and is just a 10-minute walk from Ueno-shi Station.
Iga Ueno Castle was reconstructed in the Showa era, and many wooden benches are placed around it.
By the way, it seems that the local politician, Mr. Katsushi Kawasaki, invested his private fortune to rebuild this Iga Ueno Castle.
