I have only seen one or two dotted around England. Are they all over Japan? Like, big clusters of them? I can image how beautiful that might look. Especially if the sun rises behind them... wow. It's breath taking just imagining it!
Some sakura stories in 2008
The gyoen park itself is a good place to go picnicking for people who don't drink, for drinking alcohol is prohibited there.
it is a good to look for your favorite trees from many species in the park. Each tree has different blooming time, so the tree you choose may not be the tree in spring.
I don't live in Kansai, but for fairness and it is the event I want to see.
There are some places with more than 5,000 or 10,000 trees, but I think 500 or more trees make me feel the places are great to see around.
The species on the photo may be Fugenzo, a double-flowered cherry tree, and the brown-haired young species next to Mr Fukuda is Gal Sone, an eating competitor, and you will be surprised to see how much she can eat.

Next weekends, you can expect the full bloom around Tohoku.

A Photo taken about 10 days ago.
This sakura is called "shidare-zakura", weeping cherry tree (just like weeping willow).
The blossoms are smaller and have more petals than the popular "somei yoshino".
Just click JAVAビューワでみる, and enjoy the fantastic night view, the Hirosaki Castle and Sakura.
They also have the English page, but I recommend the J version above.

Carpenters from "koi ga shitai"
When the morning sunrise
Becomes a magic show
Before your very eyes
And all the sounds of life
Begin to harmonize
You hear a song of hope
Surround your senses
And feel the promise of a brand new kind of world
Lose your defenses
Unlock your mind
Unwind and follow me
Come let me help you see
How to find the way to leave yesterday behind
When the morning sunrise

Surround your senses
And feel the promise of a brand new kind of world
Lose your defenses

Unwind and follow me
Come let me help you see
How to find the way to leave yesterday behind
