Due to global warming, Japan is warmer than
last year. This year, the sakura season
comes a little bit earlier than before.
In March, our tour visited Kansai area where we could see pretty sakura
in Kyoto, Nara and Yoshiyoyama. Every
April, the influx of tourists comes to Japan to enjoy the Sakura blossom. Many customers are surprised that the sakura
is not pink while it is pale pink instead.
In fact, there are over 600 varieties of sakura in Japan. The most common sakura is called Yoshino
sakura and it is a pale pink while Shidarezakura is also pale pink and all
around Japan.
Would you like to visit the best places for
pretty cherry blossom? I recommend you to check the blossom schedule in the
below link:
The most memorable moment for me to see the
pretty sakura is to see the sakura at night.
In every city of Japan, it has some light up events during the week of
cherry blossom. The pictures shown here
are all taken in Nijo Castle, Kyoto light up event. If you have a chance to
visit Kyoto, please do not miss it.
