April 6th Cloudy Temperature 10~15°C Chidorigafuchi Cherry Blossom Viewing 🚉Transportation Guide: Transportation is very convenient. Starting from Ikebukuro, take the Yurakucho Line towards Shin-Kiba (refer to transportation route maps 13 and 14), get off at Kojimachi Station, follow the signs (map 15), exit from Exit 1, and after leaving the station, you will see a bronze statue (map 16). Cross the road and walk straight ahead for about 9 minutes, and you will directly reach Chidorigafuchi Park. 🚉Next to the exit, there is also a bus stop (map 17), which you can choose according to your needs. 🌟If you really can't find the way, stand by the roadside and see where the cherry blossoms are blooming, then head in that direction (personally verified) ✅Must Experience: The park is not large, but the layout of the cherry trees is very good, and they are along the riverbank. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom, very beautiful, with green grass on both sides of the river, and golden yellow rapeseed flowers blooming, which is a different style from the night cherry blossoms of Meguro and the cherry blossoms of Ueno, and it's very photogenic. ❤Recommended Reason: Especially on the bridge, it's not a cold, hard stone railing, but decorated with a wooden fence, which is pleasing to the eye and also produces a very anime-like effect in photos.

Viewing cherry blossoms is very Japanese, with too many choices of time and location, I recommend this one. To appreciate the cherry blossoms, we can first understand and then feel, know ourselves as well as the enemy. 🌟Highlights: Stroll along the moat of Edo Castle The name Chidorigafuchi in the northwest of the Imperial Palace comes from its unique shape, and its wall structure resembles a short-tailed long-legged bird, which is called 'Chidori' in Japanese.

#cherryblossom2024 Take a walk along the moat of Edo Castle The moat to the northwest of the Imperial Palace was named "Chidorigafuchi" because of the color resembling the color of a plover bird, in Japanese — "chidori". How to get there The Chidorigafuchi trail around the moat starts a five-minute walk from Kudanshita and Hanzomon Railway Stations. In spring, it turns into a picturesque 700-meter tunnel of cherry blossoms. Reflection of flowers in the moat In late March and early April, the banks of the moat turn pink from cherry blossoms. The Sakura Chiyoda Festival is held at this time. Until the cherry blossoms, all the trees are illuminated at night. The magical sight attracts tourists and residents of Tokyo: walking through the luminous flower tunnel is unforgettable.

The park is vast and has about 3,000 cherry trees planted. It is recommended to go directly to the Nishinomaru Garden in the park. Although an additional admission fee is required, you can take pictures of the castle tower and the sea of cherry blossoms complementing each other here. During the cherry blossom season, the garden extends its opening hours until 8 pm, and the pink and white sea of cherry blossoms under the night sky is even more romantic under the light. Daigoji Temple is divided into Kami Daigo and Shimo Daigo, among which Shimo Daigo includes three attractions: Sanboin, Reihokan, and Garan. If you want to enjoy cherry blossoms, it is recommended to go directly to Sanboin, which was also the site of the 'Daigo no Hanami' held by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, one of the 'Three Great Unifiers' of Japan. Daigoji Temple has a variety of cherry blossoms, but the most famous is the weeping cherry tree. The weeping cherry trees in the garden can grow up to the height of a 4-story building, and when they are in full bloom, they look like a pink waterfall, which is even more pleasing to the eye against the blue sky and white clouds.
