# Asakusa Hanayashiki

A flower garden when it opened in 1853, this Asakusa park now bills itself as the oldest amusement park in Japan. Everything is packed onto one small site, so the next ride is always a few steps away. Children ride the merry-go-round horses, the swans and the haunted house. The mood stays old-fashioned, closer to a neighborhood fair than a theme park.
