As a professional portrait photographer who travels all over Tokyo, I often have clients who ask to go to Ueno Park to take pictures of cherry blossoms at the beginning. But to be honest, many recommendations on the Internet only allow people to see the cherry blossoms, which makes it difficult to take good photos! Today I will reveal the four most popular locations where I take my clients to take cherry blossom portraits✨ 🖼️Figure 2-3: Roppongi Midtown There is the famous Cherry Blossom Avenue and two large overpasses, allowing you to easily capture the view from various angles! Except for the weekends when there are more people near the residential area, it is completely fine to go there on weekdays, and the photo-taking rate is super high📸 🖼️Photo 4-6: Shioiri Park There are both early cherry blossoms and Yoshino cherry blossoms here. There is a whole row of hundreds of cherry blossom trees along the river, which looks very Japanese when photographed. Moreover, the location is relatively remote, so there aren’t many people even on weekends. Going there on weekdays can give you a sense of having the whole place to yourself. Love it🥰 🖼️Pictures 7-8: Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden Shinjuku Gyoen is very famous, so naturally there are many people there. But it’s big enough! As the largest park in Tokyo, even if it is crowded, you can still find an empty corner to take pictures of cherry blossoms. If guests don't want to go too far, this is the right place to go👍 🖼️Pictures 9-10: Sumida River Park The park is right next to Sensoji Temple, and you can also capture the Tokyo Skytree in the photo. If guests happen to be near Sensoji Temple, this is the first choice. There are cherry blossom trees planted on both sides of the river. The only drawback is that there are too many people in Sensoji Temple🤣 #TokyoSakura #PhotographyLocation #SakuraSeason #TokyoItinerary

#cherryblossom25 Shioiri Park, located along the Sumida River in Tokyo’s Arakawa ward, is a serene destination for cherry blossom viewing. The park features a variety of cherry trees that bloom at slightly different times, extending the hanami season and offering visitors prolonged enjoyment of the blossoms.   A distinctive feature of Shioiri Park is the picturesque view of cherry blossoms with the Tokyo Skytree in the background, providing excellent photo opportunities. The park’s expansive lawns and well-maintained paths make it ideal for picnics, leisurely strolls, and family gatherings. Additionally, its relative seclusion compared to more popular spots allows for a more relaxed hanami experience.  For those planning a visit, Shioiri Park is accessible via the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line; it’s approximately a 10-minute walk from Minami-Senju Station. The park offers amenities such as baby beds and chairs, catering to families with young children.   As of March 26, 2025, cherry blossoms in Tokyo are beginning to open, with the best viewing period expected from March 30 to April 7. Visiting Shioiri Park during this timeframe would provide an optimal experience of the cherry blossoms in full bloom.  For a visual glimpse of the cherry blossoms at Shioiri Park, you might find this video from March 2020 insightful:

I went to Tokyo at the end of March Originally, I was going to enjoy the cherry blossoms Who knew that this year the cherry blossoms would be delayed by half a month Cherry blossom refugees were looking for strategies everywhere Finally found Shioiri Park in Tokyo There is a patch of cherry blossoms in full bloom It was my first time seeing cherry blossoms in Japan Took a lifetime photo with the cherry blossoms So so so so happy😃 TIPS: Sisters who chase cherry blossoms are advised to wear light-colored clothes, like white dresses, to match the scene better

I found that there are a few places that I didn't introduce to you on this trip to Tokyo. One of the days we went to Tokyo Budokan 🥋 take the bus 🚌, so along the road outside the window saw a place the whole road is cherry blossoms, we immediately got off the car to see it was less people introduced, and Tokyo locals more favorite Shiojin Park. Once I got off the car and saw that the whole road 🛣️ was cherry blossom trees, the boss was very excited to take pictures. Of course, I didn't give up and helped him take pictures. The cherry blossoms🌸 are really beautiful, no Filter is needed at all. Most importantly, there are relatively few tourists here. 🔔Tips: How to get to Shiojin Park? ➡️ 1) If you start from Ueno Station, the fastest is to take the "Hibiya Line" (gray line, H line), get off at "Nami Senju Station" and walk over. ➡️ 2) If you happen to be in Adachi area, remember to take the "Grass 43" line for 210 yen. 📣📣📣 Both of these methods can lead to one of the ends of Shiojin Park, and you can walk from the beginning into a cherry blossom road. 🔔Tips: How long can I stay? ➡️ Most of the day, after all, there are not so many trees in Shinjuku Gyoen! #JapanKorea Spring Good Place

Exit from the north exit of Minami-Senju Station. There is a cherry blossom tree on the right side of the path, and you can take photos of the Skytree at the same time! (Figure 6) You can check Google Maps later. Walk straight along the river for about 10 minutes and you will see a row of cherry blossom trees. It’s so beautiful! Mister Donut has a special cherry blossom donut during the cherry blossom season, and it looks great when you hold it (Picture 1-5) #Tokyo Sakura #Shioiri Park #Minami Senju Station #Sakura2024

Whenever a warm spring breeze blows slowly in Xiuru Park, you can see flakes of bright red petals fluttering in the air, as if a dreamy rain of petals is falling on this quiet path. Wandering in this beautiful cherry blossom forest, I can appreciate these pink blooming flowers up close and feel their unique charm and fragrance firsthand. This unique dual experience of vision and smell made my mind seem to become soft and clear, and I completely got rid of the hustle and bustle of the world. At this time of year, I always look forward to receiving a unique physical and mental baptism in such a poetic cherry blossom forest. #Sakura2024

Arrived in Tokyo on March 16 Because it arrived a week earlier than the predicted flowering time. Therefore, many famous cherry blossom viewing spots have not yet bloomed. I thought I would return with regret. I accidentally discovered that the "Shioiri Park" has a large number of cherry blossoms in full bloom. I was in a hurry when I went there Otherwise, if you find a good angle, you can also take pictures of the Tokyo Skytree and cherry blossoms in the same frame This place has a more leisurely feel than Shinjuku Miyabi and Ueno Onshi Park #Sakura2024 #Tokyo #WeekendTour #OverseasTour #Japan #JapaneseAttractions #TokyoFreeTravel
