The most beautiful cherry blossoms in Japan! The first place is Kyoto Prefecture

The Netorabo survey team conducted a questionnaire on the theme of "Prefectures with beautiful cherry blossoms."

Cherry blossoms remind us of the end of winter and the arrival of spring. They can be seen in many places in Japan, but which prefectures were supported by most people as having the most beautiful cherry blossoms? Let's take a look at the ranking.

• 2nd place: Tokyo

 In Tokyo, you can see cherry blossoms at night when the Meguro River, Ueno Onshi Park, and Sumida River (Sumida Park) are lit up, and Japanese gardens and shrines such as Koishikawa Korakuen Garden, Yasukuni Shrine, and Shinjuku Gyoen, you can experience the historical atmosphere along with the cherry blossoms. Many events are held in conjunction with the blossoming of the cherry trees, so there are many ways to enjoy the cherry blossoms in Tokyo alone.

• 1st place: Kyoto Prefecture

The Gion/Higashiyama area, which includes Kiyomizu Temple, Kodaiji Temple, Gion Shirakawa, Arashiyama (Togetsukyo Bridge), and the Sagano/Arashiyama area, which has Tenryu-ji Temple, you can enjoy the scenery of historic shrines and temples, magnificent nature, and cherry blossoms in harmony. 

There are many cherry blossom spots in Kyoto, and you can easily enjoy cherry blossoms near Kyoto Station, such as Kyoto Tower and Kyoto Railway Museum, so it would be fun to go out and find your favorite spots.
