A hint of Spring

Sakura is the tree of spring.

However, there are kind of Sakura called Fudan-zakura which blooms during the winter season.

This Sakura is popular in Ohara area of Kyoto, but at the corner of Oike Street and Yanaginobanba st cross, the Fudan-zakura is blooming its flower.





Few more months the flowers fall, but then other Sakuras would be blooming fully.
