1,000 Cherry Blossoms Festival – last
The cherry blossoms here are Someiyoshino which are the most common type of cherry trees in Japan. They account for 70 to 80% of the total number. Bloom gloriously with Someiyoshino in spring, and they produce masses of whitish-pink flowers. Although most of them are Someiyoshino here, I saw some of Yaezakura as well. Both of them are very beautiful. It is worth to come see them.
It only takes one hour and 20 minutes from Tokyo by a bullet train and a 10-minute walk to Ueda station.
1,000 Cherry Blossoms Festival – continued 3
When you head a little farther on, you see a place where was used to be a castle keep.
It is only a wilderness now, but a main large hall which was for a lord to live was located here. As you can see on the picture, there is nothing now. There is another moat, but this one still has water. There a cherry blossoms along the moat. When I looked more closely, I found some carps. In Japan, the carp is a symbol of a successful career. So, I might get promoted today.
