The cherry blossoms at Hirosaki Castle in Aomori Japan Asia


On the spring, the end of April, cherry blossoms all at once. It is very gogeous and beautiful against the background of Hirosaki Castle. At first, in Edo period, an officer of Tsugaru took 25 young cherry plants to his country from Kyoto. Later, in Meiji period, more than 1000 were planted. People in Hirosaki has enjoyed watching gogeous cherry blossoms not only daytime but also illuminated ones at night since 80 years ago. We feel fantastic and visionary to watch the reflection of light on the surface of the fosse around the castle.
