🌸The cherry blossom season in Japan typically occurs between late March and early April, but exact blooming dates vary depending on the region and weather conditions each year. In central areas like Tokyo and Kyoto, full bloom usually happens in the last week of March or the first few days of April. However, blossoms may start blooming in southern regions (like Kyushu) earlier in March, while northern regions may experience them a bit later, sometimes extending into mid-April.

The duration of full bloom is short, generally lasting about one week, making it challenging to precisely time visits. We cannot guarantee that your visit will coincide with the peak blooming period. 🌸
