🌸 Meguro River Cherry Blossoms Are Beautiful, But I Prefer This Quiet Hidden Gem

#cherryblossom25
This is probably one of Tokyo’s lesser-known cherry blossom spots, mostly visited by local residents — at least for now 😉
No crowds to worry about, and personally, I think it’s even more atmospheric than Meguro River 🌸

📍 Google Maps Location:
Otakibashi (小滝橋)

🚶♀️ About a 13-minute walk from JR Takadanobaba Station, heading toward the Waseda Exit.

✨ From Otakibashi, you can walk along the Kanda River, and either direction is gorgeous:

Walk right for about 30 minutes and you’ll reach Omokagebashi, another cherry blossom hotspot.
Walk left for a quieter, more hidden vibe with even fewer people.
This whole area feels tucked away from the bustle of the city, and when the golden hour sunlight hits in the evening, it paints this hidden sanctuary in the softest, warmest glow 🌇💖

📸 Recommended Photo Spot:
Shoot from the bridge above (p3) to capture a full view of the cherry blossoms draping both sides of the river — absolutely magical!
