[2025 Asahi Attraction] Travel Guide for cherry trees along funakawa river (Updated Apr)

Asahifunagawa's "Spring Quartet" is popular for its beautiful collaboration of the Northern Alps mountains, rows of cherry blossom trees, tulips, and rape blossoms. It's difficult to get the conditions where the cherry blossoms, rape blossoms, and tulips are all in full bloom at the same time, and the mountains are clearly visible on a clear day, so I've wanted to go for the past few years but never had the chance, but I finally got to go last year. The venue is very large, and it seems that not all the tulips in the fields are in full bloom at the same time, so you can take a photo like Photo 1 by looking for a place where you can get a good balance of tulips in full bloom, rape blossoms, and cherry blossoms in the frame. A few meters to the side, I was able to take a photo of the rape blossoms and cherry blossoms, which was also beautiful [Photo 2]. By the way, the light is backlit in the morning, so I recommend taking more beautiful photos in the afternoon or evening. However, since it's a popular spot, there are quite a lot of people, as in Photo 3. So it's quite difficult to take a photo without people, and I especially had to be patient waiting for the road between the rape blossoms and tulip fields to be deserted. I went on a weekday, so I think it would be even more crowded on the weekends. If you walk towards the cherry blossoms, you can take pictures of the beautiful rows of cherry trees (Photo 4). It's also fun to look for your favorite photo spot, such as the Alps and cherry blossoms, or daffodils and cherry blossoms (Photos 5, 6). #tripDomesticTravel

There are many flowers that represent spring. Among them, the ones that come to mind for most people are probably "cherry blossoms," "rapeseed flowers," and "tulips." In Funakawa, Toyama Prefecture, there is a spot where you can view the mountains that still have snow on them along with these cute flowers. This is it. As expected, it is a popular spot, and it is visited by many foreigners as well as Japanese people. However, that is why there is a parking lot properly prepared and maintenance staff on duty, so I was able to enter the parking lot quite smoothly. The cherry blossom trees along the river stretch for about 1 kilometer, and the cherry blossoms alone are worth seeing. Tulips and rapeseed flowers are blooming in the fields right next to them. If you time it right, you will be able to see the best "spring quartet." #Toyama #Toyama #ToyamaTourism #ToyamaTrip #AsahiFunakawa #AsahiTown #SpringQuartet #Quartet #Hanami #CherryBlossoms #FamousCherryBlossomSpot #CherryBlossomLine #TravelWithMe

The cherry blossom line that stretches for about 1.2 km along the Funagawa River that flows through Asahi Town, Toyama Prefecture, is a spectacular sight in spring. In fact, this place is the cherry blossom part behind the Asahi Funagawa Spring Quartet, which I introduced in another post! If you want to see the Spring Quartet, you should also see the cherry blossom line. There is also a (probably) temporary bridge, which tickles the hearts of camera lovers. The first photo was taken from that temporary bridge. It is because of the bridge that you can take photos with the river as the center. The cherry blossoms were later than usual this year, so when I went on April 14th, they were in full bloom! #CherryBlossomLineBesideFunakawa #AsahiTown #ToyamaPrefecture #TripToToyama #CherryBlossoms #Spring #CherryBlossomViewing #Sakura2024 #MomentsStarted

#Sakura2024 Along the Funagawa River in Asahi Town, Shimoniikawa District, Toyama Prefecture With spring approaching, colorful cherry blossoms, rape blossoms, and tulips are in full bloom, with Mount Asahi still covered in snow in the background. This miraculous view can only be seen if the timing is right. If it were too early, the cherry blossoms wouldn't be in bloom, the rape blossoms and tulips would be late, and Mount Asahi wouldn't even show its face, so it was a stroke of luck to be able to see this "Spring Quartet." Even so, it was cloudy and the sky was dark and not perfect, so it was scary. I'd definitely like to go again.
