Watch them blooming and feel the spring coming

Called the ‘the spirit of Japan’ the graceful and stunning Sakura flower, or cherry blossom, has become an icon of Japan and now it’s once again the best time to see their beauty in full bloom with Hanami Parties!

One of the best places for a Hanami (Sakura viewing party) is the Maruyama-koen Park as it has some of the finest cherry trees in all of Kyoto. If you want to find accommodation at a Kyoto apartment close to the park the Citadines Karasuma-Gojo Kyoto is a good option as it just about 10 minutes away.

At parks like Maruyama-koen Park, large crowds gather for Hanami where people sit down and enjoy a picnic and sometimes there are musical performances as some bring portable karaoke systems. Hanami is the perfect way to enjoy the beauty of Sakura flowers blooming, together with your loved ones. According to the Japan Weather Association, this year the floral beauties are predicted to be in bloom from the 27th of March to the 2nd of April.
