The pink cherry blossom of Japan is possibly one of the most iconic images of Asia. With blossoming flowers bursting from the trees, Japan’s Cherry Blossom Festival celebrates and welcomes in the spring.

Known locally as Hanami, the Cherry Blossom Festival is a part of Japan’s sacred heritage. We visited Japan in the early spring months of March and April and caught more than just a glimpse of the vibrant pink flowers. To be able to visit Japan during times of such celebration is a real privilege and we would recommend Japan for a spring holiday or getaway to anyone!

During the festival people gather beneath the cherry blossom trees to celebrate the fluidity and impermanence of nature’s beauty. “Hanami” literally translates as ‘viewing flowers’ but colloquially is used to refer to the observation of cherry blossoms, particularly during the blossoming festival season. Families and friends gather beneath the blossom to picnic, sing and talk and celebrate arguably Mother Nature’s finest display in Japan.
