It was cloudy warm day and it was almost end of cherry blossom season but a few flowers remained.

There were many kinds of flowers in the park not only cherry blossom but also Thunb(Iris japonica) and azalea and more.

Cherry blossoms are No1 flower for most of Japanese even it is over the full blossom.

We wait for cherry blossoms blooming,enjoy for very short time,look a shower of cherry blossoms,and look foword to next year’s cherry blossoms.

We must be anxious about cherry blossom would be fallen by heavy rain or strong wind during flower blooming. 

There is a poem written in ninth-century in Japan.

                                                                                                                              夜景さくら                                                   

          If it were not for

          Cherry blossoms in the world,

           How peaceful and calm

           The heart in spring could be!

 

 

Thanks to all the guests for joining and having good time with us.

Please enjoy JAPAN and please enjoy the next cherry blossoms if you have a chance.
