Ueno Zoological Gardens - Five Story Pagoda

Ueno Zoological Gardens have Five Story Pagoda of Kan-eiji Temple.
All of the Ueno Park including Shinobazu Pond was a part of Kan-eiji Temple.

There's no wonder why Five Story Pagoda stands in this area but I don't understand why it's in the wall of Ueno Zoo.

Ueno Zoo is the oldest zoo in Japan which was established in 1882.
It consists of East Garden and West Garden.
There's a monorail between these two gardens.
