Cherry Blossom Viewing in Japan 🌸Please keep the guide for multiple routes

It's cherry blossom season again. If you only see one kind of cherry blossom every year, It only takes one week from full bloom to cherry blossoms. Once there is a cold or warm current, it is very likely that the whole thing will be staggered. Last year in Kyoto, the cherry blossoms bloomed much later than in previous years. But Kyoto still gives those who love cherry blossoms some room to cheat. A week before the Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the weeping cherry blossoms are in full bloom. Weeping cherry, also known as silk cherry, is a variation of Edo Higan cherry. It gets its name from its soft, drooping branches. In the spring in Kyoto, weeping cherry trees cascade down like a waterfall, their pink and white petals swaying gently in the breeze. The streamlined branches are in perfect harmony with the urban temperament of Kyoto. Therefore, it has been designated as the city flower of Kyoto Prefecture. 📍Kyoto Imperial Garden The former royal garden has about 500 cherry trees planted here. There are many varieties, including Somei Yoshino, weeping cherry, double cherry, etc. The flowering period lasts from late March to mid-April. I personally think that the best place to enjoy the early cherry blossoms is In the north, there are the ruins of Konoe's residence and the Izumi-no-Ogawa River. The former has a whole patch of weeping cherry trees. The latter cherry blossoms are in full bloom on both sides of the stream, reflected in the water. This is also the place with the most tourists. 🌸Route: 1⃣️Cherry Blossom Viewing in the Ancient Capital|Tokyo+Nara In addition to the cherry blossoms themselves, the artistic conception and atmosphere are also very important when enjoying cherry blossoms in Japan! This kind of artistic conception can be better experienced in places where traditional culture, scenery and architecture are well preserved. For example, Kyoto! In addition to Kyoto, Nara, as a thousand-year-old capital, has a cherry blossom viewing atmosphere that is no less than Kyoto. Especially when the sacred deer stroll and the flowers fall in the ancient temples, the atmosphere is amazing! - 2⃣️Mount Fuji & Kyoto Anime Cherry Blossom Sea Except the ancient capital! Mount Fuji and cherry blossoms are also a perfect match ~ Especially during the cherry blossom season at Lake Kawaguchi, you can enjoy the "Inverse Fuji" and the beautiful scenery of cherry blossoms in full bloom from the north side of Lake Kawaguchi. Of course! The modern city of Tokyo is also covered with cherry blossom trees. Although it does not have the ancient charm of Kyoto and Nara, walking towards the sea of ​​cherry blossoms in the anime is also a unique experience. - 3⃣️Kamakura|Train, sea, cherry blossoms, cafe Compared to Kyoto and Nara, Kamakura has less traffic, but the scenery is very beautiful. It always gives people the illusion of falling into a coastal town in a comic book. When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, strolling on the street and finding a small cafe will feel inexplicably healed. #Spring flower viewing strategy is ready #Small town spring travel notes #Travel route guide #Tomb Sweeping Day travel guide #Japanese cherry blossoms #Japan strategy #Spring cherry blossom viewing life festival #100 treasure towns #My niche travel strategy #Spring flower viewing places #Weekend places #Tokyo, Japan #Cherry blossom season #Enjoyment traveler #Sign up for April hotel test sleeper
