Greece style architecture in Ueno, Japan

International library of children is originally built for Imperial library in 1906.

At that time japanese era was Maiji. just opened country for foreign country.
During Maiji, many eastern style building were built, but after big earthquake and WW2, most of those were lost.
This library luckily survived thoe two disasters.
Recently it was renovated by world famous architecture, Tadao Ando.

The style of this building is rennaisance.

There is a small cafe in the garden.
If you want to have break time, this library maybe nice place, caz there are few people.
