Cherry blossoms @ Kodaiji Temple

It's been very warm since begining of this week. Finally, finally I feel spring has come!

Cherry blossoms make Kyoto city more beautiful everywhere.

This huge cherry tree is in Kodaiji temple located in Gion area.


If you are here during cherry blossom season, I'm sure you won't be bored to walk around. There are many places you have to visit both during daytime and nighttime.

The thing is that it is hardly predicted when flowers come out. Even if you decide to travel Kyoto, nobody knows the best time for cherry blossoms... So you can just cross your fingers!
