Spring is in the air! Sakura pictures that will make you wish you were in Japan right now【Photos】

Apr 10, 2017

It’s time to picnic under the trees and bask in the fleeting moment of beauty.

Nothing says spring in Japan more than the hordes of cherry blossom trees that line rivers, roads, and parks in splendorous shades of pink. Your everyday drive to work, train ride to school, or walk to the store becomes a magical moment of calming beauty because the sakura trees are in full bloom. The citizens of Japan are celebrating the blossoms in all their glory in the best way possible: on Twitter for the rest of the world to enjoy.

▼ Completely enjoying the filter magic for these shots.

Many parts of Tohoku and Hokkaido in the northern parts of Japan have yet to reach full blossom, so we can look forward to even more sakura photos in the coming weeks. We’ve said it many times before, but visiting or living in Japan during the cherry blossom season is one of the best times of the year in the country, so be sure to begin planning for next year’s bloom if you can’t make it this year. You definitely won’t be disappointed.
