I have to say that spring is my favorite season in Japan. Everything is blooming, and that includes the cherry blossom trees. They are absolutely gorgeous! I went to a garden with my host family and we got to see tons of gorgeous blooming flowers. The cherry blossoms are definitely a sight to see!

I luckily found a hidden spot to view cherry blossoms by my university. It’s a path lined with cherry blossoms. The petals have started to fall, and it makes the path looks like it is covered in a cherry blossom petal snow. It is gorgeous.

What I loved most about this spot is that it is close the the university hospital. Many patients were out walking and enjoying the cherry blossoms. It’s always a beautiful thought when something in the world can make many happy. Many people can delight in the blossoms!
