Osaka Cherry Blossoms

Osaka Castle Park: The park around the castle is filled with cherry trees and they make for some excellent photos with the castle in the background. Some of the trees are illuminated during cherry blossom season.

To tell the truth, it’s hard to catch the cherry blossoms at their peak during a short trip to Japan. If you plan a short stay in Osaka hoping to see the cherries at full bloom, you’re more than likely to be disappointed. Thus, I recommend that you consider the cherry blossoms to be a bonus. If you see them at their best, consider yourself lucky, but don’t make them the focus of your trip. Make Japan the focus of your trip and you won’t be disappointed.
Night time cherry blossoms are so beautiful, too like the picture. Even though you miss the peak season you will be satisfied with the beauty.
