Nishi Koen Cherry Blossoms, Fukuoka City - Japan's Hidden Treasures❀ 福岡市西公園 ❀ Japan As It Truly Is
Nishi Koen is a tranquil oasis is one of Fukuoka City's treasures - like walking in a small private forest in the middle of a city - yet it's long neglected or overlooked by many tourist books and guides. It's also one of the best places for seeing the sakura or cherry blossoms in Japan every spring, with huge crowds throwing parties until the wee hours of the morning. Nishi Koen (or in English, West Park) is just 10 minutes on foot north from the Ohori Subway Station.

JET Programme ALT: A Guide to Hanami in Sendai & Miyagi
Hanami is the spring time tradition in Japan of viewing flowers of cherry (or sometimes plum) trees as they bloom. It’s often enjoyed by sitting under the trees with friends and/or family on a blue tarp with festival food and drinks.
In the Sendai area, due to strong winds, cherry blossoms only last a few weeks before they fall so try to get outside when you see them blooming. At Nishi Park, Tsutsujigaoka Park and Hitome Senbonzakura, there are festival food stalls during the time of hanami. At popular hanami locations, they tend to get busy by midday. Some recommended items to bring include a blue tarp or blanket to sit on and weather appropriate clothing. You can also bring food, drinks, board/card games, fields sports equipment (Frisbee, volleyball, soccer ball, baseball, football, badminton etc.).
Locations in Sendai and Miyagi:
Nishikicho Park: a few minutes walk from Kotodaikoen Station along the Namboku Line
Nishi Park: a few minutes walk from Omachi Nishikoen Station along the Tozai Line

78. Bike ride - Hanami and Sakura in Mikamine Park at Nishitaga, Sendai, Miyagi, Tohoku, Japan
Bike ride - Hanami and Sakura in Mikamine Park at Nishitaga, Sendai, Miyagi, Tohoku, Japan. I'm riding almost as slowly as possible through the Mikamine Park and -- using the occasion -- I will say a few words about Sakura. The most liked by the Japanese variant of cherry tree is Somei Yoshino. Its flowers are almost completely white, slightly tinged with pale pink, especially near the stem. Flowers develop and usually fall within a week, before they develop the leaves. For this reason, the tree seem almost completely white. The variety takes its name from the village of Somei (now part of the district Toshima in Tokyo). Established in the second half of the nineteenth century, at the end of the Edo period and the Meiji era. Somei Yoshino is so widely associated with cherry flowers that jidai-geki and other songs feature her place in the Edo period or even earlier. However, such descriptions are anachronisms.
