Cherry blossom @ Chidorigafuchi, Imperial Palace: April 7, 2014















Tokyo is in cherry blossom season.

Its peak was last weekend (April 4-6), but it was still beautiful today. I visited Chidorigafuchi of the Imperial Palace.

Cherry flowers began to fall and leaves started to grow. The sky was blue and the air was fresh.




Many people were in small boats in the moat. Others were walking on the bank and taking pictures.







Only eastern gardens of the Imperial Palace are open to the public and western parts are closed. A cherry street in the western gardens is open to the public between April 4 and 8 this year for the first time in history. People are making long line to enter the site.

I was too busy to join the queue in the weekend.
