Info

Yūkarigaoka (ユーカリが丘) is a new town development in the city of Sakura, Chiba Prefecture. While the name of the development translates as “eucalyptus hills”, eucalyptus does not occur in the area naturally.
Yūkarigaoka serves as a bedroom community due to its proximity to central Tokyo. It is located roughly 50 minutes by the Keisei Electric Railway from Ueno Station. Yukarigaoka Station, built specifically for the new town development, is served by the Keisei Line and Yamaman Yūkarigaoka Line. The Yamaman Yūkarigaoka Line, which exclusively serves Yūkarigaoka, is a people mover system with a koala logo.
The movie Ainshutain Gāru (アインシュタインガール), or "Einstein Girl", takes place in Yūkarigaoka, and features the high-rise apartments, scenery such as Lake Inbanuma), and the Yamaman Yukarigaoka people mover.
