This happens during the month of late march or early April. When the spring comes late, a pink tide of cherry blossoms washes all over this amazing city and this phenomenon lasts for about a week or so. The finest displays of cherry blossoms that you can ever have is at the moat surrounding the Imperial Palace, in the Aoyama Cemetery, the riverside in Sumida-koen, along the banks of Meguro-gawa and the Ueno-koen. In these places, each tree shelters the best hamami or blossom viewing party. This is one party that you most definitely want to be in.
