Cherry blossom in Kyoto.
Hello. We will introduce the sight of cherry blossoms in Kyoto. We will introduce the night view of cherry blossoms in Kyoto. First is Gion-Shirakawa. Get on Hankyu-line and get off at Shijo-Kawaramachi station. Or, you can get on Keihan-line and get off at Shijo station. Every year, illumination at night is held from the end of March to the beginning of April from 6-10pm. Drooping cherries bloom beautifully. If you have a chance, you can take a picture with Maiko. Next, go east and you will arrive at Yasaka shrine. You can enjoy the beautiful cherry blossom view and pay homage. Go farther east and you will arrive at Maruyama-park. The cherry blossoms are at their best in the 1st week of April. So, illumination at night is held until 2 am. If you work late, you can still enjoy the illumination. Next to Yasaka shrine, there is Choraku-kan. It is a restaurant. The appearance is magnificent, but the price is reasonable. The restaurant is open until 10 pm. If you go south, you can enjoy a row of houses and streets like Kyoto. There are many souvenir shops and if you go up Sannen-zaka, you get to Kiyomizu-temple. There are about 1000 cherry blossoms. This picture is Kiyomizu-temple.
I’ll introduce another plan around Kyoto-Sangyo-University.
First, let’s go to the Jobon-Rendai-Temple by bus and get off at Senbon-Kitaoji. The temple is not such a popular cherry blossom place, but there are very beautiful weeping cherry trees which blossom fascinatingly. You can see the vivid pink petals when you are taking a bus.
Walk west about 5 minutes and climb a slope of a hill. There is Takeisao-Shrine with weeping trees and Someiyoshino. It is very impressive that the falling cherry blossom petals cover the stairs, so it’s pink. The view from there is good. This picture is Jobon-Rendai-Temple.
Then walk north. Imamiya-Shrine has some weeping cherry trees. The shrine holds “Yasurai-Matsuri” on the 2nd Sunday in April. And you should eat “Aburi–mochi”. It’s delicious.
Lastly, go to Kamigamo-Shrine by bus No46. It’s one of the famous cherry blossom spots. You can see the beautiful cherry blossoms everywhere.
We introduced not so crowded places, so you’ll spend a relaxing time. Please enjoy “OHANAMI”
