Kyoto Cherry Blossom Season 🌸
This cherry blossom season coincided perfectly with full bloom, and cherry blossoms were everywhere. 🎢🌟 We visited most of the recommended hotspots and found that some spots are great for photos but not so much for enjoying the flowers. Here’s a summary from both a photo-taking and flower-viewing perspective: 🌸 P1 Oishi Shrine: A very small shrine that has been taken over by Chinese tourists for photos. 🎢🌟There aren’t many cherry blossoms here, so it’s better for taking pictures than for viewing the blossoms. 📷 🌸 P2 Take-Naka Inari Shrine: Located in a residential area, away from the main attractions. The combination of torii gates and cherry blossoms is very picturesque, but the cherry blossom path is short, and there are many people posing for photos. 🎢🌟 It’s good for photos but not for enjoying the flowers. 🌸 🌸 P3 Philosopher's Path: There’s a 300-cherry-tree corridor between the canal and the walking path, perfect for strolling and enjoying the blossoms. It’s quite crowded, but some angles offer great photo opportunities. 🌿 #KyotoCherryBlossoms 🌺
