Tokyo Ohanami – A stroll through cherry blossoms

Content : A photographic book and a cherry blossom parks guide

In Japan, after a long winter, cherry blossoms announce the arrival of spring : it’s called «Ohanami». For the first time of the year, it’s time to picnic with friends, family or colleagues. But this is an ephemeral moment : rain and wind can kill within hours these fragile flowers.

In the first part of the book, immerse yourself in the Ohanami atmosphere in Tokyo megalopolis, through 200 photos of ten popular sites.

In the second part, a 48 pages guide with 100 parks and alleys with cherry trees throughout Japan, will help you plan your trip and enjoy Ohanami in the best conditions. With QRcodes printed in the guide, you will quickly know each location on Google Maps.
