The cherry blossom ceiling, where you see heart-shaped cherry blossoms

—— Speaking of cherry blossom spots in Japan🌸 Hirosaki in Aomori Prefecture must be on the list. Since it's in the northern region, there aren't as many tourists. Locals love to go there to unwind🏕 Especially the park's three major festivals: · Spring - Cherry Blossom Festival🌸 · Autumn - Red Leaf Festival🍃 · Winter - Snow Lantern Festival❄ Each one is memorable for travelers. Recently, the park became famous because of the anime 'Demon Slayer' 🔥 The Japanese pronunciation of Nezuko, the sister of the protagonist Tanjiro, matches that of a historic tree over 500 years old within the park. People flock here to check in 📸 Additionally, there's a hidden spot in the park where the branches of two cherry trees overlap, creating a heart-shaped cherry blossom in the sky💕🌸 —— Basic information: 📍 Location: Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture, northern Japan ✈️ Access: Domestic ✈️ Tokyo 🚆 Hirosaki 🚗 Park 📄 VISA: Japanese visa 📜 💵 Currency: Japanese Yen 💷 💱 Exchange rate: 1:20.9 💹 🗣 Language: Japanese 🗨 📅 Park admission: Open season: April 1st - November 23rd, 9:00am~5:00pm Cherry blossom season: April 19th - May 5th, 7:00am~9:00pm 🎫 Tickets: General admission adults 520 yen, children 160 yen 📅 Best time to visit: Recommended during cherry blossom season 📷 Photo by: kyoko1903 —— ❗ Seasonal highlights: · Spring: Cherry Blossom Festival, cherry blossom tunnels, flower rafts, and night cherry blossoms, perfect for cherry blossom viewing and outings 🌸 · Summer: Cool off, quiet, suitable for walks, exercise, and camping🚶‍♂⛺ · Autumn: Red Leaf Festival, lush autumn leaves, evening light shows are a must-see 🍁💡 · Winter: Snow Lantern Festival, covered in white snow, snow lanterns and light shows are a highlight ❄🏮 —— 🚗How to get there · Tokyo🚆Hirosaki Tokyo Station → Shin-Aomori Station → Hirosaki Station 4 hours · Tokyo✈Hirosaki Tokyo Haneda Airport → Aomori Airport 🚌→ Hirosaki Station 2 hours · Tokyo🚌Hirosaki Tokyo (Ueno・Shinagawa・Hamamatsucho) → Hirosaki 9.5 hours · From Hirosaki Station→Hirosaki Park 🚌about 15 min 🚶‍about 30 min —— 🌄 Must-see spots: · Hirosaki Castle: A castle from the Edo period, one of the hundred famous castles 🏯 · Oldest Somei Yoshino cherry tree: About 130 years old🌸 · Thickest Somei Yoshino cherry tree trunk: Circumference of 537 cm🌳 · Botanical Garden: About 1 hour, with 1500 species and 124,000 trees and plants · Hirosaki Castle Information Center: Free, you can get the stamp of the Hundred Famous Castles, the center uses multimedia interaction and 3D projection to tell history, and sells original merchandise 🏰🎥 · Others: Hirosaki Municipal Museum, Civic Hall, Gokoku Shrine 🎭🏟

Driving from Hirosaki of Akita prefecture to Yamagata was such an experience. I went through nature forest, small town villages, and cross over the mountains. On the way, you will pass through city, town, small town and villages. Along the way we also stay at the natural onsen resort which were renowned and very authentic of japan nature. Not to mention the sceneries that we saw were all breathtaking and out of the tourist spots. We Totally enjoyed this trip and stay.
