Hanami at Korakuen Garden

The beatiful cherry blossoms at Korakuen Garden

These are from my day at the Kōrakuen Garden in Okayama- shi, Okayama, Japan. Kōrakuen is considered one of the three best gardens in Japan. With its wide sweeping green lawns, beautiful flowers, traditional architecture, and spectacularly huge koi carp I can understand why it is ranked as such. The time of year that I took these is especially great because it is when the cherry blossoms bloom. Cherry blossoms only bloom briefly at the beginning of spring. The time of year is called Hanami; "hana" is flower in Japanese and "mi" is to look. Therefore this time of year is when everyone goes out and picnics under the trees and looks at the flowers. It is a truly memorable sight.
