Chasing Sakura at Fukuoka Prefecture

#cherryblossom25 Fukuoka City transforms into a picturesque wonderland each March as its parks and streets are adorned with delicate cherry blossoms. From small gardens to sprawling parks, riversides to temple and shrine grounds, it’s hard to miss the pretty flowers adorning the city! Top flower-viewing spots in the city include Maizuru Park, located at the ruins of Fukuoka Castle, where a sea of flowers bloom around the historic castle walls to create a blend of natural beauty and cultural charm. And nearby Nishi Park provides the perfect space for a picnic under the trees, while a row of cherry blossoms lining the river at Tenjin Central Park makes for a wonderful stroll under the flowers in the middle of the city. And if the city centre isn’t enough, exploring further brings you to the floral wonderland of Umi no Nakamichi Seaside Park or the picturesque island of Nokonoshima where thousands of cherry blossoms and other spring flowers await! There’re plenty of flowers to enjoy during cherry blossom season even in the bustling city, so why not immerse yourself in the beauty of springtime in Fukuoka on one of our spring tours there this March? #followmejapan #japan #japantravel #visitjapan #visitjp_gofurther #japantrip #visitkyushu #fukuoka #sakura #cherryblossom
