Cherry blossom is three weeks of it. Flip through the other forty-nine — and watch what's in bloom move up and down the country.
The calendar is the way in. Underneath it sits the ordinary thing — search, filter by month or flower, and open any of the 412 spots.

About 10,000 cherry trees of some 150 kinds, including a 2 km avenue along the Kitakami River, one of the three great cherry spots of Tohoku. In festival season horse-drawn carriages run under the trees, and the trees are lit up until 9 pm.
