Petals and Past Echoes at Tottori Castle Ruins

At the Tottori Castle Ruins, history and hanami danced together in perfect harmony. The crumbling stone walls stood proud beneath a soft cascade of sakura petals, as if time itself had paused to admire the fleeting beauty. Climbing up to the mountaintop gave me a panoramic view of Tottori City awash in pink. Locals picnicked under centuries-old cherry trees, the air rich with laughter and springtime joy. As I sipped matcha beneath the blossoms, I felt a quiet reverence—where nature, culture, and nostalgia converged. A moment I’ll never forget. #cherryblossom25
