Stepping into April in Japan is like stepping into a pastel watercolor painting. It’s a symphony of soft pink and delicate white as the cherry blossom trees adorning the streets and parks begin their annual dance of blooming, bidding farewell to winter’s chill and embracing the balmy vibe of spring.
Welcome to the magical world of Hanami, or cherry blossom viewing, a deeply rooted tradition in Japanese culture that captures the mesmerizing beauty of spring. Hanami isn’t merely about admiring the blush-pink Sakura trees; it revolves around appreciating the ephemeral nature of life.
Welcome to Japan – a land of ancient traditions, modern wonders and distinctive four seasons – spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Each season paints the country with unique colors and oomph, making each visit distinctly different.
