I came a little bit late for the cherry blossoms (25/2). Many of the petals had already fallen... but still, I enjoyed the walk. The cherry blossoms are breathtaking. The nanohana, and the orange and lemon trees made good accompanies with the sakura. I had to stop every few steps to take pictures of them because they are so beautiful! There were also food stalls and souvenir shops that sold cherry-blossom-related food and goods. Since oranges and lemons are in the season, some shops sold them in packs too. When I felt tired walking, there are free onsen for my feet to rest and rejuvenate. I really enjoyed the hanami. Kawazu is a lovely and quiet town near the coast with good hot springs. If time allowed, I would have spent a night there to see the light-up of the cherry blossom trees along the river, and hike a bit to see the waterfalls in the morning.

Of the cherry blossom trees, the "kawa-zakura" is known as an early bloomer. Starting in late January, its rich pink petals can be enjoyed for close to a month. The Kawazakura Festival begins with the blooming of the trees, and close to 800 trees on a 4km stretch along the Kawazu River burst forth in pink. At night, the area along the banks of the river becomes a pedestrian paradise, with beautiful illuminations. This is also true at Mine Onsen, where the trees are lit up. Seeing the cherry trees emerge out of the darkness is mysterious and beautiful. There are foot baths along the road where you can take a soak, and local specialties are on sale, as well as stalls serving food and drink. There are also special performances on stage.

The walk from Mizutare B/S is downhill but steps can be considered high for people with knee problems. The view is well worth the effort.

This is a part of the Kawazu sakura festival. The night illumination of the sakura with the loops bridge as the background makes it a lovely place. Definitely worth the time to take the bus away from the main site of the sakura festival to get here. Can also visit the seven waterfalls as well
