The season of Sakura just started in Tohoku region.
We can enjoy beautiful sakura around the Hotel Kanyo.
First, in front of Kanyo. Species Somei Yoshino. Fully bloomed as of today.
Second, we have planted last month baby sakura trees in a hill side near the hotel as the momery of 6 years from tsunami. Three tiny flowers bloomed!
Of course we can see many beautiful sakuras in Minami Sanriku, but I show you undiscovered sakura spots in Tome city. Accessible by car in approx. 1 hours.
Minamikata 1000 sakuras. Tunnel of sakura, 6 km long.
Byodonuma Park, reflection of sakura on the lake, illuminated night time.
Shishigajyo Park, sakura mountain with street stalls, illuminated.
Wakuya Castle Park, variety of sakura including Shidare sakura or Yama sakura along river side, horse race also.
Enjoy Japanese tradition in Tohoku.
