#吉园 Gion is a prosperous district in #Kyoto, retaining many traditional Japanese buildings, as well as many performances such as geisha, kabuki and so on. But in addition to being a famous entertainment area, viewing cherry blossoms here is also a must-have! There are also many places nearby where you can take photos without crowds! 1. Gion Tatsumi Bridge Super cool! ! Although the bridge is very short, there are very big cherry blossom trees next to it, and there are also some red signs. To be honest, it feels a bit like a shrine. It’s great to take pictures of the river scenery or cherry blossoms directly on the bridge! 2. Xunqiao Trail Pass this bridge and then walk along the river. There are many Japanese-style buildings. There are cherry blossom trees on the left and willow trees on the right. It feels like spring! ! And those Japanese-style huts are quite nice, and it’s great to take photos with the willow trees! 3. Sakura Avenue I also walked straight to Tatsumi Bridge, and after crossing the road, I came to a road with huge cherry blossom trees on both sides! The cherry blossoms are high but there are really many people. I waited for a long time but there was no one on the road. [Laughing through tears] Although it is beautiful, it is difficult to find a photo spot. 4. Small houses nearby This is really a great location! ! First of all, there are very few people, and there are some Japanese-style buildings, which look really nice with the cherry blossoms!

Yasaka Shrine⛩️ & Maruyama Park To be honest, there are relatively few cherry blossoms in #Yasaka Shrine. In fact, it is connected to the Maruyama Park. The main purpose of the shrine is to buy guards and worship. It is not very big. On the contrary, #Maruyama Park, which is connected together, is better. There are several cherry blossom trees in it, and it may be limited to the cherry blossom season! There are many vendors and small shops selling food. They usually open around 6-7 o'clock, which may be convenient for everyone to come over after get off work to eat and drink. There are also barbecue restaurants and the like, where you can sit down, drink beer, eat, chat and enjoy the cherry blossoms. It is quite comfortable! 8. Gion Shijo Commercial Street There are many small shops where you can buy souvenirs and small gifts. They are quite cute. In fact, they are also a main road in the center. They are easy to recognize. They mainly come here to buy small things. In fact, you can often encounter cherry blossoms on the roadside in Kyoto during the cherry blossom season. Of course, I personally think that Gion is the best place for cherry blossom viewing! It’s super dense and there are so many places that you can’t finish it no matter how you walk~ It’s also super beautiful to take photos with! ! Of course it’s not the cherry blossom season, but you can still go for a walk around the area. It’s also nice to go shopping. #Overseas travel #Sakura season #Japan travel #travel #sakura
