CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL IN JAPAN
Sakura is the Japanese word for cherry blossom. This kind of flower blossoms across Japan between
March and May each year, beginning with Okinawa in the far south in February to northern Hokkaido in May.
In ancient Japan, cherry blossom had great importance because it announced the rice-planting season and was
used to divine the year's harvest.
Many factors can affect when the cherry blossom comes in to bloom. A particularly cold winter can
make the flowers come out late. Mild weather can allow them blossom sooner. Heavy rain can mean that the
trees drop their petals much quicker than otherwise.
If you are lucky enough to visit Japan during cherry blossom season, you should go to the local parks
and gardens, bring some picnic food and drinks and join the Cherry Blossom Festival (or hanami in Japanese).
It is one of the traditional customs of Japan and
it is very famous. During this period, the Japanese are very
relaxed, and everyone enjoys the pleasant
