Nihonbashi is also known by other names such as “Nihonbashi Cherry Blossom Avenue” and “Edo Cherry Blossom Avenue.” During the festival, organizers set up a hanami stage, using decorations and LED lights to create a blooming cherry blossom corridor. Additionally, the Mitsui Main Building holds a “Cherry Blossom Light Show” every day at 6:30 PM, giving the building a romantic and soft ambiance. Apart from enjoying the beautiful cherry blossoms, visitors can also explore the open-air food street “Yozakura Open Bar,” specially set up by local merchants if they get hungry.
