April heralds in one of the most beautiful seasons for Japan. Watch Japan become a gorgeous sea of pinkish white as cherry blossoms fill the streets with their beauty, catching the eye of both locals and tourists. The Sakura season follows an ancient Japanese tradition of picnicking under cherry blossom trees. Today, people from all over the world visit Japan to catch a sight nothing short of magical. You don’t have to visit the mountains, castles or large gardens; cherry blossoms are planted all over the cities. The Sakura season ends early May, allowing the warm, sunny days of summer to take over. Visit Japan and watch the entire country in full bloom!
