Love for Cherry Blossoms
Cherry blossoms, which we have seen a lot in Shinchan cartoon 🌸🎥, can now be enjoyed in real life too!
So why not share some information about where we can see these beautiful blossoms? 🌺
Cherry blossom trees need a specific type of weather for blooming — a mix of both cold and hot — and such a season is called SAKURA season in Japan.
As soon as the hot season arrives in Japan, buds bloom on the trees 🌞🌱, and with the arrival of spring, cherry blossom flowers appear 🌸🌿.
Such a nice scene is perfect for picnics and romantic spots 🧺💑. Japanese cherry blossoms are not only famous tourist spots, but cherry blossoms can also be seen from a cultural aspect 🎎.
Cherry blossoms are a symbol in Japan — they are a metaphor for the ephemeral nature of life 🍃⏳. You must have seen many cherry blossom trees in manga and anime 📚✨.
So today, let us take you to the top five best cherry blossom spots in Japan 🗾🌸.
Hirosaki Castle Park:
Many types of festivals are organized here, depending on the season 🎉.
As the spring season arrives, when the cherry blossom blooms 🌸, then the Cherry Blossom Festival is celebrated 🌼.
When it is the autumn season, the whole area is covered in red leaves 🍁, then there is the Autumn Foliage Festival, and when it is the winter season, the Snow Lantern Festival is celebrated ❄️🏮. There is a popular place for taking pictures 📷, where branches of two trees make a heart shape, named Hot Sakura 💖🌸.
If you go here, the price for one person will be Yen 320 💴. If there is a child along, then the price will be Yen 100 👧🧒.
It is a good picnic spot 🧺, and there are boats also 🚣. The sceneries of cherry blossoms will show you the other side of the world 🌍✨.
Fuji Five lakes:
If you are a nature lover 🌿 and a fan of cherry blossoms 🌸, then this spot is no less than a paradise for you ✨.
Just imagine, you are roaming amidst cherry blossoms, and just behind you is Mount Fuji, a majestic mountain 🗻. It will seem as if your own scene has been cut from a movie and put in it 🎥🌸. The Fuji-Kawaguchiko Cherry Blossom Festival is celebrated here in the month of April 📅, which will help you to know about the local culture and tradition 🎎.
The sunrise and sunset here are like magic 🌅🌄. And if you are going there and meeting people, then you must eat something from there so that you remember, "When I went there, I ate this thing." 🍱 There is no better thing than Cherry Blossom Mochi because it is a sweet treat 🍡 in which rice and a strip of cherry blossom leaf are wrapped 🌸🍃.
3. Shinjuku gyoen:
When you go to many places, the timing can be a big problem ⏰ because each variety has a different blooming time, and mostly at one place, you can’t find diversity in variety 🌸.
But at this place, the timing is not a problem because there are many varieties, and the blooming time of all is different 🌼🌺🌸, so here it seems that the blooming season lasts for ages ⌛.
Not many people come here, so if you want to relax and enjoy your view, then it would be a good spot 🧘♂️🌸. The entry fee is also very low 💴.
Alcohol, playing sports, and playing musical instruments in a very loud voice are prohibited 🚫⚽🎺🍺. The famous Matcha tea 🍵—everyone knows it in India 🇮🇳—is available here in good quality.
A big greenhouse is also installed here 🌿🏡; many tropical and subtropical plants are grown 🌴🌱, so those who are interested in seeing many plant species, cherry blossom + greenhouse is no less than heaven 🌸🌿😇.
And if you ask which is the best month to visit, then I would say April 📅.
4. Chidorigafuchi:
Chidorigafuchi is in Tokyo 🗼. Here, boat rides are done very well 🚣♂️, and a festival called Chiyoda Sakura is celebrated 🌸🎉.
When you are riding a boat, the scene is so beautiful that the falling leaves of cherry blossoms in the water feel like a royal procession 👑🌸💧.
There is a 700-meter-long walkway around the whole palace 🏯, and it is considered a great dating spot in Japan 💑. If you go out for a walk in the evening, then the glowing tunnel of flowers will mesmerize you so much that you will forget where you are 🌸🌆✨.
Nearby is Jimbocho, also known as the Book Sellers District 📚, a place where you can understand more about the palace.
You can enjoy the boat ride, and being among the tall and wide trees and the fallen leaves will make you feel peaceful 🌳🍂😌.
And if your partner is with you, then there can be no better place than this 💖.
5. Takato castle ruins park:
The Takato Castle Ruins Park is so full of cherry blossoms 🌸 that it was said this place was once used to hide horses 🐎. In 1875, the Samurai of Old Takato planted these trees here so that the castle could be revived 🏯🌸.
This is one of the grandest sites in Japan. Mount Alps is present right behind it 🏔️. Here, I found a variety of cherry blossoms that is not found anywhere else on Earth — the Takato-Higan-Zakura 🌸✨.
This is one of the best hundred sites in Japan 🏆. If you come here, the fare for an adult will be Yen 600 💴 and for a child, it will be Yen 300 👦👧.
This is a place that will make you feel the sacrifice and the love of a beautiful scene 💖🍃.
Conclusion:
Whether you are a nature lover 🌿 or a history buff 🏰, you will find everything in every destination of Japan. Pack your bags 🧳 and get your camera ready 📸 to explore.
If I could ever go here, I would imagine myself sitting peacefully under the cherry blossom tree 🌳, having a picnic 🧺. The gentle breeze is blowing 🌬️, and the leaves are falling 🍂. This is my dream 💭.
