Cherry Blossom in Tokyo Holds deep cultural significance in Japan. The word Cherry Blossom is also known as Sakura in Japanese. These delicate pink and white flowers symbolize the beauty and transient nature of life, as they bloom brilliantly for just a short period each spring. 

The Cherry Blossom in Tokyo bloom typically begins in late March to early April starting in the southern regions of Japan and progressing northward, marking the arrival of spring and new beginnings. Sakura season symbolizes a fresh start or fresh beginnings but likewise the transitory of the nature of life. Japanese people enjoy the glimpse of  Tokyo’s cherry blossom season as it represents health and enjoyment.

Tokyo’s Cherry Blossom Festival

Japan has completely opened its boundaries to foreign tourists, and activities such as cherry blossom festivals have been allowed since last year. This ritual goes back many centuries. It’s a time of festivals and celebrations in honour of the cherry blossoms. Cherry blossom festivals, or Hanami, are generally the fall season between late March and mid-April or even sometimes early May. 

The Tokyo’s Cherry Blossom Festival in Japan takes place mostly near riversides, Parks, roadsides, mountainsides, gardens, temples, shrines, business districts, and more.

According to the Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA), the country’s most common and loved ‘somei Yoshino’ combination of cherry trees reached complete bloom recently, 4 days later than the city’s average. While the cold climate delayed this year’s blooms, the agency alerts of the long-term outcome of climate change, which may further intent cherry blossoms to appear earlier in the future.

Despite pandemic-related border restrictions being lifted, tourism to Japan has been succeeding, with an international crowd also appreciating the scenery on Thursday. A 35-year-old tourist from New York City, planned her journey across the cherry blossoms in Tokyo, expressing pride with the sight, calling it ‘marvellous’ and ‘very magical.’

The sakura (cherry blossom in Japanese) intermediate blooming time can vary widely based on the geographical location within the country. Areas with delicate winter temperatures produce earlier bloom times. Blooms usually open first in the southern region, and blossoming progresses northward. 

Wind, rain, and temperature can result in the blossoms appearing either earlier or later than average and can lengthen or shorten the blooming season.

Today, these Japanese cherry blossom trees are a popular tourist attraction. Each spring attracts thousands of people to cherry blossoms during National Cherry Blossom Festival. They admire the glimpse of pink and white blooms. Like the Japanese who celebrate Sakura Jensen, many Americans see the festival as an amazing time of year.

I did my first solo trip in India with WanderOn. Initially I was sceptical about their Meghalaya-Kaziranga trip as I didn't have any prior experience with them but the team assured me that it's going to be one of the best experiences of my life.

In Ladakh, find the perfect blend of culture, adventure, and serenity. December last year I decided that my next trip would be Ladakh but didn’t know how to go about it. I knew I wanted to travel in a group, as I had prior experiences of traveling in a group but wanted an organiser I could trust. Ladakh isn’t like other destinations wherein you need some instructions due to the high altitudes.
