First Cherry Blossom

It was freezing and snowing here last week. Summer in Kyoto is humid and sometimes hard to breathe even though winter is also very cold. It doesn't snow a lot but the air is dried so that you feel colder.



In such cold weather, the first cherry blossom blooms!

Isn't it beautiful? I don't know very well but there are several kinds of cherry trees.




The tree stands Oike street, so it is watched by many people passing by.

Cherry bloosoms usually start to bloom from end of March. I believe Kyoto is the most beautiful place for cherry bloosom in Japan or maybe in the world.

Come to Kyoto in spring!
