Blossoms in Tokyo: Embracing the Sakura Magic

During my recent visit to Tokyo, I arrived towards the end of peak sakura season. Witnessing some areas where the trees were in full bloom and rivers adorned with pink petals was truly surreal. The fleeting nature of sakura, lasting only a week or two, made experiencing this moment even more special. I was completely captivated by the atmosphere. However, it's worth noting that this season attracts large crowds all over Japan, especially at tourist spots. My advice is to wake up early and explore neighborhoods near Tokyo, where you might find yourself strolling down an entire street with just a few fellow admirers. #cherryblossom2024 #tokyo #hakone #japan
