A local would say...

Six hundred peonies sheltered under straw umbrellas beside a golden shrine — and somehow, never crowded.

A seasonal peony garden beside the golden Ueno Toshogu Shrine. Open only during winter and spring. Each flower sheltered under a traditional straw umbrella. Over 600 peonies with the gilded shrine as backdrop.
