Chasing Sakura at Yamashita Park Yokohama

#cherryblossom25 Weeping Cherry Blossoms in City Park

Location: Yamashita Park, Naka-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture

This photo showcases a lovely night vista of weeping cherry tree blossoms (Prunus pendula / ”shidare-zakura” in Japanese) located in Yamashita-Koen Park. The trio of trees can be found adjacent to a large rose garden, situated on the opposite side of the road from the historically renowned Hotel New Grand (established 1927). Depending on your vantage point, you may also be able to include Yokohama Marine Tower in the backdrop of the cherry blossoms.

These three trees were generously donated and relocated from Miyagi Prefecture in northeastern Japan to Yokohama by the former Yokohama-East branch of Lions Club International back in 1993.
