[2025 Kawazu Attraction] Travel Guide for Kawazu Zakura (Kawazucho) (Updated Mar)

It is said that Mount Fuji rewards early risers. Compared to Lake Kawaguchiko, I prefer Lake Yamanaka. Although there was no "reverse Fuji," I was already very satisfied. There was sunrise, swans, and Mount Fuji. 🚗6:30 Hirano Lakeside (Hirano no Hama) Took a taxi to Hirano no Hama. There were swans, sunrise, and Mount Fuji. 🚴10:00 Shiratori-hama After 7:00, there's a bus. Took the bus back to the hotel and rented a bicycle with electric assist. It wasn't tiring. Cycling around the lake took 2 hours. Gave up on "the park" as it opens at 11:00 and there were already many people waiting for viewing spots at 10:00. But actually, just a little bit past "the park," the scenery was also amazing. There's no need to wait specifically. After cycling around the lake, had brunch at Denny's. In the afternoon, took a bus to Lake Kawaguchiko. A perfect day. ❗️Tips The lake bus only starts running at 7:00. To see the sunrise early, you need to take a taxi or stay near Hirano. There are swans in many places, especially at Shiratori-hama, and also at Hirano. Bicycle rentals are available from 9:00 for JPY 2,000 for two hours. Rented from an elderly gentleman near Shiratori-hama. Two hours is enough to cycle around the lake and take photos. You can choose a hotel in Hirano or near a bus stop, which is very convenient.

🙆‍♂️Maybe it's because I've watched too many anime, but the cherry blossom season is always the season I look forward to the most🥹 This year, due to the weather, the cherry blossoms will bloom later than usual, and are expected to bloom in large numbers in mid-to-late March. After visiting many times, besides the popular hot spots that have already bloomed, here are some places I recommend. All of them are accessible by subway, and are secret spots with cherry blossoms lining the streets. 🚃Transportation + Features + Photo Spots + Tips 📍Kawazu Cherry Blossoms⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌸Features: The same filming location as the Japanese drama "First Love," with cherry blossom trees stretching for nearly 5 km along the river, which is truly stunning. The petals are also very large, making it easier to take close-up shots compared to other places. 📷Photo Spots: It is recommended to walk counterclockwise along both sides of the riverbank to avoid the crowds and take photos freely. 🚇Transportation: Take the JR Izu Kyuko Line, which is a special cherry blossom train. Remember to book a seat on the left side (A) to enjoy a 10-minute coastal view, which is super beautiful. 📍JR Nishi-Hachioji Station⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌸Features: Both sides of the entire riverbank are lined with cherry blossom trees, which is very spectacular. There are also very few people, mostly locals jogging, so you can take photos freely. 📷Photo Spots: Every day at 14:10/16:25, two Chuo Line limited express trains will roar through the cherry blossom tunnel (arrive 20 minutes early to get a spot). 🚇Transportation: Exit the north exit of JR Chuo Line "Nishi-Hachioji Station," cross the overpass to "Oiwakecho Pedestrian Bridge." 📍Tokyo Skytree⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌸Features: A popular postcard location, with the world's tallest tower and cherry blossoms in the same frame. Many people like to take photos of the night cherry blossoms here, but I prefer to take photos on sunny days, which are more beautiful. 🚇Transportation: Take the Asakusa Line to "Oshiage Station" and exit at B3/ Take the Tobu Skytree Line directly. 📷Photo Spots: From 18:00 to 21:00, the Skytree will light up with cherry blossom pink lights! It is recommended to walk to Azumabashi Bridge to take photos of the river cherry blossoms and the double tower reflection. 🌚Tips: Be sure to come on a sunny day, as it looks really ugly on a cloudy day. 📍Shinjuku Gyoen⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌸Features: An urban garden with more than 70 kinds of cherry blossoms blooming in succession, with a flowering period of up to 1 month, so you won't miss it. 🚇Transportation: Take the Marunouchi Line to "Shinjuku Gyoenmae Station" and exit at Exit 1/ Walk 10 minutes from the south exit of JR "Shinjuku Station." 📷Photo Spots: Use a wide-angle lens to capture the lawn, cherry blossoms, and Shinjuku skyscrapers in the same frame in the garden area. 🌚Tips: There will be a lot of people after 11:00. 📍Yoyogi Park⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌸Features: Many local young people come here for picnics and cherry blossom viewing. It is also a filming location for many anime. There is a cherry blossom market every weekend, which I have attended once, and it is really lively. 🚇Transportation: Take the Chiyoda Line to "Yoyogi-Koen Station" and exit at Exit 4/ Walk 7 minutes from the Omotesando exit of JR "Harajuku Station."

Due to the warm winter this year, the early-blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms are blooming earlier than usual and are about to reach their peak⚠️Normally, they start blooming in early February, but this year they have already started blooming from the end of January😵The best time to see them is about a week to 10 days, but unlike regular cherry blossoms, the color is deep, so I think you can still enjoy them when they are 50-60% in bloom! Today, I will introduce the Kawazu cherry blossoms in Kawazu Town, Minamiizu, Shizuoka Prefecture, which is said to be the birthplace of Kawazu cherry blossoms, and is a spot where you can see Kawazu cherry blossoms! There is a large Kawazu cherry tree here🌸 ▪️About the Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival---- The Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival will be held for one month from February 1st to February 29th! During the event, many stalls are set up, so you can fill your stomach without going into any of the shops 😋 There are shops, but they are few and far between, so it's best to eat while walking along the river 💡 The area is lit up between 18:00 and 21:00, making for an even more fantastic view 😍✨ ▪️About the Kawazu Sakura Trees---- Here you'll find a large Kawazu Sakura tree 🌸It is said to have started when a cherry tree seedling discovered about 70 years ago was planted 🧐The tree faces the road and the sidewalk is narrow, so it may be difficult to take a photo, but please be careful of your surroundings and take a look! ▪️The best day to visit this year is around February ◯---- As of February 7th, it is forecast to be 10-20% in bloom, about a week earlier than last year! It's unclear what the weather will be like in the future, but it is predicted that the cherry blossoms will be 70% in bloom around February 14th, so if you're going on the weekend, it's a good idea to reserve your spot on the 17th or 18th of that week 💡 Perhaps the cherry blossoms will already be starting to fall by the following weekend 💦 The temperature is expected to rise again this weekend, so it will depend on that The photo posted was taken on February 24, 2023, and it was almost at its peak! ▪️If you're going from the city center, buy a limited express train in advance ------ If you're going from Tokyo or Yokohama, be sure to buy a ticket for the limited express train in advance 🎫 It's quite a distance away, and even if you take the limited express, it takes 2.5 hours from Tokyo Station and 2 hours from Yokohama Station. You don't have to take the limited express, but it will take an extra hour ⚠️ Also, the limited express trains fill up quickly during the peak viewing period! There are still some places where the peak viewing time is unknown, so I recommend buying tickets online in advance! You can buy tickets on Ekinet, so please try it out! ️ --------------------------------- That's it! What do you think? When Kawazu cherry blossoms bloom, it feels like spring has begun, so please come and experience the arrival of spring in the birthplace of Kawazu cherry blossoms! #sakura2024 #sakura2024 #cherryblossomconquest #amazingcherryblossomviews #shizuokatourism #kawazucherryblossoms #izu

Who among my family members understands? This cherry blossom viewing experience in Izu was absolutely amazing! I didn't get up early in the morning, and I thought I would miss the beautiful scenery, but I still encountered the extremely romantic cherry blossom tunnel. I was so lucky🥳 Walking in the tunnel, there were large patches of blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms above my head, and the pink petals were intertwined, like a flower road leading to a dream world. The breeze blew, and the petals fell, and the atmosphere was full. How can cherry blossom viewing be complete without delicious food? The local Sakura Latte has the mellow coffee flavor at first, followed by a light cherry blossom aroma, which is rich in layers and leaves a lasting aftertaste. There is also the soft, sweet and fragrant Sakura Daifuku, which is full of the taste of spring when you take a bite. Now looking back at the pictures, I am still so greedy and really want to eat another one. I can't help but share some good news with my friends. Although it rained heavily and was windy in Izu yesterday, the Kawazu cherry blossoms were super strong. Only about 10-15% of them were knocked down. They are still incredibly beautiful when you go to see them now! Those of you who are planning to come to Izu to enjoy the cherry blossoms, hurry up! If you miss this season, you will have to wait another year! #Izu #Kawazu Sakura #Japan Cherry Blossom Viewing

Kawazu cherry blossoms are the earliest blooming cherry blossoms in Eastern Japan. To check the blooming status in Kawazu Town, you can visit the official website, which is updated every morning. The Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival is held from early to late February each year. During this period, there are many food stalls and unique souvenirs available for tourists to purchase near Kawazu Station and along the Kawazu River, creating a lively atmosphere. Visitors can enjoy the beautiful cherry blossoms along the river while tasting delicious local snacks, offering a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds. A special recommendation is the sakura-flavored taiyaki, available only during the festival. Freshly made, it is warm and chewy, and its pink color perfectly complements the cherry blossom scenery. Holding it under the cherry trees makes for a perfect photo opportunity. For those interested in night cherry blossoms, there is an evening illumination ceremony from 6 PM to 9 PM. Transportation: If traveling from Tokyo, you can take the Odoriko Limited Express train directly to JR Kawazu Station. This is the most convenient and fastest method, though it is also more expensive. For a cheaper option, you can take the Tokaido Shinkansen to Atami Station, then transfer to the JR Ito Line to Kawazu Station. If you are visiting the Higashi-Izu area for the Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival, you can also experience the Japanese Doll Festival, also known as Girls' Day, held from late January to late March each year. The main venue is the Hina-no-Yakata at Izu Inatori Bunka Park, which requires an admission fee. The exhibition features thousands of miniature hina dolls and large hina decorations, which are colorful and symbolize the healthy growth of girls. Additionally, there are souvenir stalls where visitors can purchase hina dolls and decorations. If you want to buy some traditional Japanese cultural souvenirs, consider hina dolls and decorations as precious travel memories. Transportation: Get off at Izu-Inatori Station on the Izu Kyuko Line and walk for about 15 minutes.

Excluding Okinawa, the cherry blossoms that bloom most eagerly in Japan are the Kawazu cherry blossoms. This city on the southern edge of the Izu Peninsula holds a cherry blossom festival every February. Because of their different varieties, not only do they bloom the earliest, their colors are also slightly redder than Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms, and their flowering period is also longer. It is said that Kawazu cherry is a variety that was transplanted from Taiwan mountain cherry in the early days and naturally reproduced with native Oshima cherry. Take the Odori train from Tokyo, pass through Atami, and arrive at Kawazu Station in two and a half hours. There are more than 8,000 Kawazu cherry trees planted along both sides of the river, which are in harmony with the blooming golden rapeseed flowers, creating a dreamy scene. There are also stalls on the bathing road selling seafood from the Izu Peninsula, and there are free foot baths to enjoy. You can also arrange to visit Kawazu Sakura together with hot spring resorts such as Atami, Ito, or Shimoda to enjoy the beautiful scenery of early spring. The Kawazu cherry blossoms are still in bud, so if you are planning to travel to Kanto soon, don’t miss it. 📍Address: 79-4 Kawazu-chohama, Kamo-gun, Shizuoka Prefecture, 413-0513 #Good Places to Go in January 2025

I never thought that visiting Tokyo in February would give us the chance to see cherry blossoms 🌸. I had been to Lake Kawaguchi before, but it was in April, and I saw the cherry blossom petals falling like snow. In February, we heard that Atami and Kawazu had cherry blossoms, so we decided to come! It takes about two hours to drive from Tokyo, which isn't too long. When we arrived, parking was easy. The cherry blossom festival was just like this! We were already very happy to see one or two cherry blossom trees.

#springsummergoodplace2024 #河津 #河津zakurafestival #河津zakura #河津zakura The Kawazu Sakura Festival is the earliest cherry blossom festival in East Japan where cherry blossoms bloom. Although most places in Honshu bloom in mid-March, in Kawazu the cherry trees bloom a month earlier. Therefore, for tourists who are looking forward to the end of winter, warmer weather, and spring scenery, the Kawazu Sakura Festival from February 2 to the end of February is a very suitable day. #JapaneseAttractions #Tokyomust-go

The Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival is the earliest cherry blossom festival in Eastern Japan, usually blooming from early February to late February. It attracts about one million visitors each year. The petals of the Kawazu cherry blossoms are a vivid pink, making them perfect for photography. The festival route map extends from Kawazu Town to Mine Onsen, with about 800 Kawazu cherry trees lining both sides of the Aono River, creating a cherry blossom avenue approximately 4.2 kilometers long. Coupled with the yellow rapeseed flower fields along the embankments, it weaves a colorful tapestry of spring scenery. Along the way, there are many snack stalls, local crafts, and souvenirs, and at night, there are illumination events. There are also interesting rickshaw rides available for a unique flower-viewing experience.

I made a special trip to Kawazu to check in with the cherry blossoms, and it was really beautiful. Since I can only go to Japan in February and wanted to see cherry blossoms, I chose to go to Kawazu Town in Tokyo to see them. Kawazu Town, located in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, is famous for its beautiful cherry blossom spots. The cherry blossom season in Kawazu Town is very enchanting, with the entire town blooming with a brilliant sea of flowers every year. Having the opportunity to witness the cherry blossoms in Kawazu Town with my own eyes was a beautiful and unforgettable journey. As soon as I stepped into this town, I was immediately struck by the stunning view of pink and white cherry blossoms everywhere. Walking under the cherry trees and watching the petals fall should give a sense of tranquility and romance. In addition, Kawazu Town has some other tourist attractions, which I also successfully checked in. I arrived in Kawazu Town during the cherry blossom season, just in time for the cherry blossoms to bloom. The entire town was surrounded by cherry trees, forming a brilliant sea of flowers. I strolled along the Kawazu River, enjoying the beautiful scene of falling petals, feeling as if I were in a fairy tale world~

I went to Kawazu in Izu to see the early-blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms and rape blossoms. I've been there a few times, but this year it's a special place where you can feel the arrival of spring. When I see the scenery of cherry blossoms and rape blossoms in full bloom, I can feel the spring of Ibuki, even though it's cold. There is a cherry blossom arch along the river from the station, so I walk around it, have lunch on the way, and detox at Arashi no Yu, which is my usual routine. Next time I'd like to stay overnight and see the night illuminations. #Sakura2024 #AmazingView #TripToEnjoySpring
