Aomori One-Day Sakura Adventure 🌸🚗 | Chasing Cherry Blossoms Across the North!

#cherryblossom25
Aomori’s cherry blossom spots are pretty spread out, so we booked a private car from Hirosaki and set off on an epic one-day sakura trip! 🎀🌸 Here's the route we covered — and wow, every stop was a different kind of magic! ✨

📍 First Stop: Iwakiyama Cherry Blossom Avenue 🌸⛰️

Known as the world’s longest cherry blossom road stretching over 20 km! 🌸🌸
Although only about 40% of the blossoms were out (since it’s at a higher elevation), the view was still breathtaking, especially with Mt. Iwaki covered in snow as the backdrop! ❄️🏔️🌸

📍 Second Stop: Fujimi Tsurunomai Bridge 🌸🌉

Full bloom magic! 🌸💖
We caught the perfect shot with the Tsurunomai Bridge, cherry blossoms, a serene lake, and snowcapped mountains all in one frame — absolutely stunning! 🏞️✨

📍 Third Stop: Ashino Park 🌸🚂

One of Aomori’s most famous sakura spots — and it didn’t disappoint! 🌸🌸

The cherry blossom tunnel with the cute little sakura train running underneath is iconic! 🚂🌸
(P.S. The train runs once every hour — so grab your spot early if you want that dreamy photo!) 📸
Inside the park, the deep pink Somei Yoshino blossoms mix beautifully with the pale pink weeping cherry trees, all spread out across lush green lawns — like stepping into a living painting. 🎨🌸🌿
📍 Bonus Spot: Takayama Inari Shrine ⛩️🌸

Along the way, we also visited the super photogenic Takayama Inari Shrine, which stretches dramatically across an entire hillside with its rows and rows of red torii gates! ⛩️❤️
The viewing platform above the torii path is the ultimate photo spot — don't miss it! 📸✨
