【Strategy Guide】The most beautiful cherry blossom routes in Japan are here!

🔸When going to Japan to view cherry blossoms, there's really no need to fixate on Tokyo, Kyoto, or Osaka, where it's crowded, flight tickets are expensive, and the experience isn't as good. Off-peak cherry blossom viewing is the correct way to unlock the beauty of Japan's cherry blossoms. 🔸Below, I share my personal cherry blossom viewing route—Northeast Japan. Not only does it avoid the cherry blossom viewing peak, but flight tickets are thousands cheaper, it's less crowded, and the experience is N times better. 📍【Cherry Blossom Viewing Dates】 The cherry blossoms in the northeastern part are about half a month later than in Honshu. The best dates are between April 15th and April 30th. There's a high chance of seeing the cherry blossoms in full bloom, and ANA's special offer tickets are available, with round trips from Guangzhou to Tokyo around 1500. 📍【Cherry Blossom Viewing Route】 Tokyo—Morioka—Kakunodate—Ashino Park—Hirosaki—Hakodate—Return to Tokyo 📍【Nanny-level Free Itinerary】 🔸Day 1: Fly domestically to Tokyo—Get the JR pass at Narita Airport's JR Travel Service Center, reserve seats for the entire Shinkansen journey—Take the Narita Express to Tokyo Station—Take the Shinkansen from Tokyo Station to Morioka for 2.5 hours—Stay in Morioka 🔸Day 2: Morioka Castle Ruins Park—Kitakami Tenshochi—Return to Morioka for accommodation 🔸Day 3: Take your luggage, take the Shinkansen to Akita Kakunodate—Leave luggage at Kakunodate Station—Walk to Hinokinai River—Walk to Samurai Residences—Return to the station to pick up luggage and take JR to Akita Station—Stay in Akita 🔸Day 4: Take your luggage, take the sightseeing train Shirakami to Goshogawara—You'll see a very beautiful seascape along the way—Get off at Goshogawara Station, transfer to the Tsugaru Railway to Ashino Park—Watch the train pass through the cherry blossom tunnel at Ashino Park—Return to Goshogawara, then transfer to JR to Hirosaki—In the evening, you can go to Hirosaki Park to see the night cherry blossoms—Stay in Hirosaki 🔸Day 5: Visit Hirosaki Park early in the morning—Before noon, take your luggage and take the Shinkansen to Hakodate—Visit Hakodate's Hachimanzaka—Go up to Mount Hakodate to see the night view before evening—Stay in Hakodate 🔸Day 6: Have breakfast at the Hakodate morning market—Kanemori Warehouse—Goryokaku Park—Take the Shinkansen back to Tokyo 🔸Day 7: Free activities in Tokyo—Return home 📍【Transportation】 You can use the JR pass for East Japan and Hokkaido throughout the journey Cost: 35,000 yen, valid for 6 consecutive days Note: 🔸Remember to reserve your Shinkansen reserved seat in advance 🔸When using the JR pass to go through the ticket gates, use the manned gate and just show your pass 🔸Tsugaru Railway is a private railway, JR pass cannot be used, you need to buy a separate ticket.
