Another Year of Cherry Blossom Season (Inokashira Park Cherry Blossom Photo Collection)
Inokashira Park, located in Mugoto-yama, Musashino City, Tokyo, is one of the most popular cherry blossom viewing spots. The park covers an area of 43,000 square meters.
Inokashira Park is Japan's first Western-style pleasure garden. It features a lake, forest, walking paths, tennis courts, a zoo, a botanical garden, a children's playground, and a sculpture museum. It also houses the famous Miyazaki Museum of Contemporary Art, 'The Forest of Trees in Mitaka'. The park includes sports fields and running routes.
During the month of April, when cherry blossoms are in full bloom, petals float across the pond's surface, making it a 'romantic cherry blossom viewing spot for couples'.
The park also retains the ancient Mugoto-yama Castle ruins, with the solemn shrine beneath the cherry blossoms, adding to its spiritual atmosphere.
