The cherry blossom ceiling, where you see heart-shaped cherry blossoms

—— Speaking of cherry blossom spots in Japan🌸 Hirosaki in Aomori Prefecture must be on the list. Since it's in the northern region, there aren't as many tourists. Locals love to go there to unwind🏕 Especially the park's three major festivals: · Spring - Cherry Blossom Festival🌸 · Autumn - Red Leaf Festival🍃 · Winter - Snow Lantern Festival❄ Each one is memorable for travelers. Recently, the park became famous because of the anime 'Demon Slayer' 🔥 The Japanese pronunciation of Nezuko, the sister of the protagonist Tanjiro, matches that of a historic tree over 500 years old within the park. People flock here to check in 📸 Additionally, there's a hidden spot in the park where the branches of two cherry trees overlap, creating a heart-shaped cherry blossom in the sky💕🌸 —— Basic information: 📍 Location: Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture, northern Japan ✈️ Access: Domestic ✈️ Tokyo 🚆 Hirosaki 🚗 Park 📄 VISA: Japanese visa 📜 💵 Currency: Japanese Yen 💷 💱 Exchange rate: 1:20.9 💹 🗣 Language: Japanese 🗨 📅 Park admission: Open season: April 1st - November 23rd, 9:00am~5:00pm Cherry blossom season: April 19th - May 5th, 7:00am~9:00pm 🎫 Tickets: General admission adults 520 yen, children 160 yen 📅 Best time to visit: Recommended during cherry blossom season 📷 Photo by: kyoko1903 —— ❗ Seasonal highlights: · Spring: Cherry Blossom Festival, cherry blossom tunnels, flower rafts, and night cherry blossoms, perfect for cherry blossom viewing and outings 🌸 · Summer: Cool off, quiet, suitable for walks, exercise, and camping🚶‍♂⛺ · Autumn: Red Leaf Festival, lush autumn leaves, evening light shows are a must-see 🍁💡 · Winter: Snow Lantern Festival, covered in white snow, snow lanterns and light shows are a highlight ❄🏮 —— 🚗How to get there · Tokyo🚆Hirosaki Tokyo Station → Shin-Aomori Station → Hirosaki Station 4 hours · Tokyo✈Hirosaki Tokyo Haneda Airport → Aomori Airport 🚌→ Hirosaki Station 2 hours · Tokyo🚌Hirosaki Tokyo (Ueno・Shinagawa・Hamamatsucho) → Hirosaki 9.5 hours · From Hirosaki Station→Hirosaki Park 🚌about 15 min 🚶‍about 30 min —— 🌄 Must-see spots: · Hirosaki Castle: A castle from the Edo period, one of the hundred famous castles 🏯 · Oldest Somei Yoshino cherry tree: About 130 years old🌸 · Thickest Somei Yoshino cherry tree trunk: Circumference of 537 cm🌳 · Botanical Garden: About 1 hour, with 1500 species and 124,000 trees and plants · Hirosaki Castle Information Center: Free, you can get the stamp of the Hundred Famous Castles, the center uses multimedia interaction and 3D projection to tell history, and sells original merchandise 🏰🎥 · Others: Hirosaki Municipal Museum, Civic Hall, Gokoku Shrine 🎭🏟
