What to expect

Start your journey at Shinjuku Gyoen, Tokyo's Central Park, home to three distinct gardens and around 900 cherry blossom trees that paint a pink landscape in spring. Next, visit Chidorigafuchi Park, famous for its lake that resembles a thousand birds in flight. The riverbank is lined with 170 cherry trees, making it one of Tokyo’s top cherry blossom spots. Enjoy a boat ride for a unique view of the blossoms, especially stunning at night when their reflections shimmer on the water. Head to Ueno Onshi Park, Tokyo’s most famous cherry blossom location. Opened in 1873, this historic park features a zoo, museums, and vibrant blossoms. During peak season, over 2 million visitors come for hanami, picnicking under the trees. The park's Shinobazu Pond and Ueno Toshogu Shrine add to its charm. Continue to Sumida Park, which stretches along the Sumida River. With over 700 cherry trees, it's a beautiful spot, especially from Sakurabashi Bridge, where Tokyo Skytree stands in the distance. Locals picnic here, and the atmosphere is lively with stalls and performances. Finally, visit Meguro River, lined with cherry trees, creating a romantic ambiance. The surrounding neighborhood is perfect for leisurely strolls, and at night, the area comes alive with vendors offering snacks and drinks.
