A late-blooming cherry blossom with beautiful overlapping petals🌸 Yaezakura

Located about 30 minutes north of Nagahama Station by car, between Kinomoto and Lake Yogo, this historic shrine was founded in 1400. ⛩️ About 60 "double cherry blossoms" are planted on both sides of the approximately 100-meter approach to the shrine. The best time to see them is from mid-April to early May. The arch of the deep, voluminous double cherry blossoms is truly a spectacular sight. 🌸 Recommended as it is not as crowded as Kyoto or Hikone Castle. 🌸 Nighttime illuminations are also held until the cherry blossoms fall. 💡 Lighting times are from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. [Ikagu Shrine] ⚪︎Location 688 Ooto, Kinomoto-cho, Nagahama-shi, Shiga ⚪︎Parking Available #Sakura2024 #sakura2024 #Stunning views of cherry blossoms #Sakura capture #Shiga #Shiga sightseeing
