The weather was unsettled, but the blossoms were in full bloom.
What a spectacular display of cherry blossoms in full bloom! They look wonderful alongside the elevated Hanshin Railway tracks, too!

I live in Ashiyahama.
The first and second photos show the cherry blossoms along the Miyagawa River.
The third photo shows the cherry blossoms in Chayanocho.
We were able to enjoy them for a long time this year 🥰
It’s so soothing to be able to enjoy such beautiful cherry blossoms without having to travel far.
Ah, so beautiful ♡
Both displays are magnificent! The contrast against the blue sky is beautiful!

On my way home from work, it happened to be the night of a new moon. The cherry blossom petals reflected the light spilling out from the shops, creating this magical shot.
Cherry blossoms at night are magical and lovely, too! You can enjoy a different side of them at every time of day ♪
In Closing
Cherry blossoms are beautiful at their peak, but they’re just as lovely when their petals begin to fall! We’re still accepting photos of cherry blossoms taken in Ashiya, as well as photos of other flowers. Please send us yours!
