  1. But this year probably is not the best time to go to Japan for sakura viewing as it will take some time to get everything to normal after latest earthquake in Japan.

    Yes, I agree this year is not a good time to visit Japan following the recent disasters. However I think April is probably the best month for the cherry blossom viewing and they are absolutely glorious in some areas at this time of year.

  3. Beautiful photo 🙂
