Tohoku Sakura Guide 🌸🗾｜More Peaceful than Tokyo or Kyoto, Yet Absolutely Breathtaking!"

#cherryblossom25 Everyone come check this out!!✨ Who says cherry blossom viewing has to be in Tokyo or Kyoto? Tohoku in northern Japan is the real hidden gem! In springtime, places like Morioka, Akita, Aomori, Hirosaki… are absolutely stunning 🌸✨ Not only are there fewer crowds and beautiful views, but it's also home to one of Japan’s top 3 cherry blossom spots: Hirosaki Park. Every photo here looks like it came straight out of a drama 🍃📷 Here are the amazing sakura spots I visited in Tohoku: 🌸 Morioka Castle Ruins Park (Iwate Park): Full of history and fluttering petals—romantic and atmospheric. 🌸 Kitakami Tenshochi: Endless cherry trees along the riverbank, plus you can take a little boat ride! 　🚨 There's a hidden gem restaurant nearby with great vibes—I’m thinking of writing a full post just about it! (Let me know if you're interested!) 🌸 Kakunodate Samurai District: Edo-period vibes meet blooming sakura. It’s like stepping into a historical drama set. 🌸 Hinokinai River Embankment: A perfect riverside walking and picnic spot that stretches from Kakunodate. 🌸 Hirosaki Park: The ultimate dream! Petal rafts floating in the moat, romantic night blossoms glowing softly, and petals dancing like snow in the wind… It’s a must-see in your lifetime!! Also 📍Gappo Park, which becomes completely blanketed in cherry blossoms during peak season—walking through it feels like breathing in a pink fairytale 💞 Here, you’ll feel like you’ve walked into a Japanese language textbook full of poetic cherry blossom terms: Hanayakata (花筏): Fallen petals drifting on water, like tiny pink rafts. #travel
