[2025 Chikuzen Attraction] Travel Guide for Kusaba River Cherry blossom trees (Updated Jun)

#FukuokaSakura The private cherry blossom viewing spot in Fukuoka Prefecture - Kusaba River Cherry Blossom Trees. The Kusaba River flows through Chikuzen Town, Asakura District, Fukuoka Prefecture. In early April every year, cherry blossoms along the approximately 2-kilometer-long river bank are in full bloom, dyeing the river banks pink. The sound of gurgling water, the yellow rapeseed flowers, and the field scenery intertwined with the cherry blossoms are truly a stunning sight. When night falls, lights will be turned on, and the night cherry blossoms reflected in the water look very dreamy. It is a good place for photography enthusiasts to capture night cherry blossoms. However, the transportation is a little inconvenient. If you don’t drive there yourself, you can only take the Nishitetsu bus, get off at Hisamitsu stop, and walk for about ten minutes to get there. #福彩 #草草川の桡木

#cherryblossomviewing It's close to my house, so I can see the cherry blossoms all year round. When I visited the other day, it was bustling with people taking pre-entrance ceremony photos and people just taking a walk. This year's cherry blossom tunnel was also very beautiful. I'm grateful that they bloom every year without fail.

@Fukuoka Japan's Kyushu region's lesser-known cherry blossom viewing spot, Kusakogawa. Weekend is here, spring brings various romantic vibes and colors~ Now I don't know if anyone can see this, but I can't help but recommend a relatively niche cherry blossom viewing spot to you, avoiding the crowds and ending up with nothing, let's plan it! Many tourists rushing to Japan to see cherry blossoms may go to some well-known scenic spots, only to find out how crowded they are. The essence of cherry blossom viewing in Japan (especially for photography) is not about going to popular tourist attractions, but about driving around in the countryside and seeing rows of beautiful cherry blossom trees swaying in the wind. Recommend a cherry blossom path in Kawakami, Fukuoka called Kusagawa River (located in Asakura, Fukuoka Prefecture). It's only an hour away by bus. Instead of crowded tourist attractions, why not visit the Kusagawa River? The cherry blossoms along the river stretch for several kilometers. Even if you go on weekends, you can have a whole tree in full bloom, allowing you to enjoy the flowers and take photos without any hassle.
