About this spot
Toyotomi Hideyoshi held his famous cherry party here in 1598, and about 700 cherry trees still flower over three weeks, from great weeping cherries to late mountain cherries. A costume procession re-enacts the party on the second Sunday of April. Entry is charged (about 1,800 yen for all three areas in spring).
