GPS art of cherry blossoms on the Imperial Palace✨
GPS art of cherry blossoms in the East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, one of the most famous cherry blossom viewing spots in Tokyo.
The East Gardens of the Imperial Palace is a part of the Imperial Palace garden open to the public, a spot where historical castle ruins and beautiful nature are in harmony. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom throughout the garden, especially around Otemon Gate and Ninomaru Garden, where someiyoshino, edohigan, and mamezakura cherry trees attract visitors. Visitors can spend a relaxing time with cherry blossoms in full bloom at the grass plaza that stretches over the ruins of the former Honmaru of Edo Castle. This is a precious spot where visitors can enjoy cherry blossom viewing while experiencing history and nature, even though it is located in the center of the city.
The best time to view the cherry blossoms is usually from mid-March to early April. This is an adjacent location when visiting the “Imperial Palace Inui-dori Open House,” which is held every year. Although you need to pay attention to the entrance time, it is a GPS art that you should definitely try when you visit🌸
