Who understands the sheer spring vibes of experiencing early cherry blossoms in Kyoto?

Haha! I finally found the super-duper early cherry blossoms in Kyoto! The October cherry blossoms at Hirano Shrine! I heard they have many ancient cherry trees and rare varieties here. I don't know if this one is, but I haven't seen it anywhere else. They say it blooms twice a year, and when I went to see it today, the flowers were still there🌼 (other cherry trees were bare). The flowers are much smaller than usual varieties, and the petals are a bit messy, very unique. I kept thinking if I had been born earlier, I could have caught the cherry blossom season, but I still managed to find them😝 (although there were only a few🌸cherry blossom🌸trees). ⚠️Summary tips: This is very similar to a variety of magnolia I heard about before that blooms twice a year. I forgot what it's called. Lucky~~😁😁😁😁😁 I felt the breath of spring at Hirano Shrine🌼, capturing the earliest spring.
