All Reviews of Kawazu-zakura blossoms along the Kawazu River

I visited a bit early in the season, so only about half of the cherry blossoms were in bloom. Still, it was totally worth seeing.
The parking lots in the town center get really crowded, so I recommend heading upstream along the river. It's less busy and you can enjoy the flowers comfortably!

The cherry blossom trees stretch from the station all the way along both sides of the Kawazu River. Every year, they hold a lively cherry blossom festival here.

Thousands of Kawazu cherry blossoms in full bloom—absolutely stunning.

The cherry blossoms are super lush and pink—absolutely gorgeous! The weather was great, too, so it was really nice just strolling around!

These are the earliest cherry blossoms to bloom in Japan, usually around mid-February. There's also a festival for the Kawazu-zakura at the same time, with lots of food stalls nearby. The atmosphere is super lively!
