cherry blossom (Page 2)
One of Tokyo’s most scenic cherry blossom viewing spots has a lot more to offer than just space for a picnic!
The extremely Instagrammable museum ushers in sakura season with gorgeous displays of real fish, illuminations, and cherry blossom decorations galore.
Enjoy the upcoming cherry blossom viewing season in style with these beautiful-looking drinks and sweets.
Swiss chocolatier’s take on the cherry blossoms includes a new macaron that captures the scent of spring.
Swiss chocolatier’s Japan branches keep the pedal/petal to the metal for sakura sweets season.
One of the first glimmers of spring is the appearance of this seasonal beverage that uses real cherry blossom petals and leaves.
Nothing like making friends and enjoying the fleeting beauty of a Japanese spring together.
Real cherry blossoms wither after a week, but flowers on this plastic tree will last a very long time.
