[User Shared] At the Forefront of Cherry Blossoms! Kansai Cherry Blossom Map 2016

The cherry blossom season is here again—have you planned your flower photography itinerary for this year? To see the blossoms,Japanand South Korea are popular choices. By mid-March, it’s cherry blossom time in the Kansai region this year, and a netizen has carefully prepared a Kansai cherry blossom map, which Fever Travel is sharing with everyone here.

There are many varieties of cherry blossoms. In addition to Yoshino cherry, common ones in Kansai include mountain cherry and weeping cherry. They usually begin to bloom gradually from March to early April, with the “full bloom” period mostly around early April. The “cherry blossom snow” when petals fall may occur in the second week of April, but it all depends on weather and environmental conditions. So, when heading out to view the blossoms, it’s best to go with an open mind.
