Hanami

The tradition of Hanami and the associated festivals have probably been around since the Nara period (710–794).

The Japanese cherry blossom (Japanese 桜 sakura) is one of the most important symbols of Japanese culture. It stands for beauty, awakening and transience. The cherry blossom season marks a high point in the Japanese calendar and the beginning of spring.

The cherry blossom begins in Japan from mid-March on Kyūshū and then “migrates” to the northeast until it arrives on Hokkaidō around the beginning of May.

In the ten days or so when the cherries are in bloom in their own area, almost all residents of Japan celebrate a hanami with friends, colleagues or family in a park or other excellent place, which takes on a folk festival-like character.
