Visitors immediately crowded the &#8220;cherry blossom alley&#8221;, a pedestrian lane that is the main attraction of the area every spring.<\/p>\n<p>From the south gate to the north gate, as many as 331 cherry trees from 140 varieties line the track along about 560 meters. In a Kyodo News report quoted on Thursday, April 9, one of the most interesting additions this year is Fukuzakura, a rare variety whose parent tree comes from Kenrokuen in Kanazawa, one of the most famous parks in Japan.<\/p>\n<p>From the first day, visitors were seen walking leisurely under the rows of full-blooming sakura on both sides of the path. Many stopped to take pictures, while others enjoyed the different shapes of flowers from each variety.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s fun to see each type of tree and the way it blooms differently,&#8221; said Takashi Ito, a 55-year-old dentist from Nishinomiya, Hyogo Prefecture, who comes every year.<\/p>\n<p>This event has been held since 1883 and continues every year. According to Kyodo News, the exception only occurred during and after Japan&#8217;s involvement in World War II, as well as during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to being a regular spring agenda, this event is also known for featuring many types of sakura in one location. That&#8217;s what makes Japan Mint still have its own appeal in the midst of the many hanami locations in Japan.<\/p>\n<p>The English, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, and French versions are automatically generated by the AI.
