Spring and autumn are the prettiest seasons in Japan. While autumn brings golden foliage, spring here is synonymous with cherry blossoms. The flowers are best seen in March and April along the Philosopher’s Path in Kyoto, at Shinjuku Gyoen in Tokyo, or at Hirosaki Park in northern Japan where 2,600 trees flower each year.
