Spring in Japan
Springtime is undoubtedly one of the best (but by far the busiest) times to visit Japan, as of course, you have the Sakura (cherry blossom) to enjoy.
The Japanese take the art of cherry blossom appreciation to new levels. Cherry blossom (Sakura) is a real national treasure, and appears in everything from paintings and literature, down to Starbucks coffee and company logos. If there would be a visual representation of Japan, the hallmark would be Sakura (Japanese Cherry Blossom).
Depending on weather conditions and temperatures, late February brings the plum blossom, which is a darker pink colour. This lasts just over a week or two. Then following that, from around mid-March, is the famous Cherry Blossom. If you have picked this season, you’re in for a treat! Explore the amazing towns and spots and enjoy the Japanese cherry blossom.
