As I was taking a leisurely walk, looking at the cherry trees along the Naruo-Mikage Line and “Sakura-dori” in Kawanishi-cho, now completely covered in fresh green leaves…

↑ Huh!?

↑ From around the elevated Hanshin Railway tracks, it suddenly looks less like leafy cherry trees and more like a row of cherry trees in full bloom…!?

↑ I knew it! From here onward, the cherry blossoms are still in full bloom!

↑ Looking closely, unlike the row of trees from earlier, it seems these are not “Somei Yoshino” cherry trees but “yaezakura” double-flowered cherry trees.

↑ The fluffy pom-pom-like blossoms are so cute!

↑ The Somei Yoshino blossoms have already fallen, but it looks like we can still enjoy the rows of yaezakura for a while longer!
On the map, it’s around here↓
The address is around Hirata Kitamachi, Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
↓ We’re also looking for cherry blossom photos taken in Ashiya, as well as photos of other flowers! Please send them in!
