Cherry Blossoms in Tokyo
By Maryanne on June 17, 2010In Tokyo, it’s sakura season! Bursts of pink and white are softening the city’s hard edges and obscuring the dismal architecture – even the drabbest apartment building looks positively cheery with a cherry tree out front in full bloom. Of course Tokyo has green spaces and other pockets of beauty, and they provide great escapes from the congestion, concrete and steel at all times of year, but these gems are made more precious with the appearance of the cherry blossoms.
