Experiences of viewing cherry blossoms in Kyoto's Yawata City
The first time I knew that the cherry blossoms here was from Geyou Meat Pulling "Spring Kyoto.1.4km cherry blossom tunnel behind the dike"I got the information in the article. She is regarded as the teacher who started my sprint to enjoy cherry blossoms. She always yearns for the beauty in person from the articles and photos. In the previous sprints, she has not been able to see the back dike. This time she especially told Wendy. Must & be sure to schedule it.
If you take a ride from Kyoto all the way and the walking time, the round trip is really time-consuming compared to the scenic spots in the city, but there are not too many foreign tourists. When we arrived, we saw clusters of cherry blossoms in the wind and snow, just like the tourists around us. Taking out the floor mats and sitting under the tree, watching quietly seems to blow away the pressure of work and life, which is why I can't help but visit various beautiful spots with Wendy.If readers still want to know which cherry blossom viewing spots?
