Maruoka Castle Park, one of Japan's Top 100 Cherry Blossom Spots

Tue, March 21, 2017, by Muza-chan

The list of Japan’s Top 100 Cherry Blossom Spots was compiled by the Japan Cherry Blossom Association, and includes well known places, many of them with historic value, visited during Hanami by large number of people. And of course, all of them have a high density of spectacular sakura cherry trees, as you can see in this photo taken in the Maruoka Castle Park.
