A Burst of Color at Nezu Shrine Azalea Garden

#holidayitinerary Nezu Shrine in Tokyo is not only known for its rich history but also for its breathtaking Azalea Garden. Each spring, from mid-April to early May, the hillside bursts into vibrant colors with more than 3,000 azalea bushes in full bloom. Shades of pink, red, purple, and white create a dreamy landscape that feels almost otherworldly. The contrast of the blossoms against the shrine’s vermilion torii gates and traditional architecture makes it even more enchanting. Strolling through the garden, you can enjoy the calming blend of nature and culture. It’s a favorite spot for both locals and travelers who want to capture the beauty of Japan’s seasonal charm in a peaceful yet festive setting.
